In principle, I think a NAPstab is only worthwhile if it can transform one's position from a losing one to a (likely) winning one. (I said the same thing early in Poly game, and it certainly worked for Team RB in that game.) The inevitable diplo fall-out doesn't seem worthwhile to move up the from 8th in the 'ranking' to, say, 5th.
In this situation, I'd consider it, but would probably reject it on principle. That said, there's not much practical grounds to think it could work: Korea already whipped hard to get out the axes that all lost at PY, and fast units would be crucial to capture Imp Center (and maybe even Ry), and chariots are all Korea has. Also C&D would play a factor: if Whosit can see Korea's power then he can get some more units out to swing things in his favour.
