On a side note-my opinion: For the Japanese, it was a bad idea to seize Midway on several levels. Midway was too far away from all other Japanese bases to be supported or protected. Even if the Japanese had taken Midway, the US could have easily retaken it or neutralized it. For the Japanese, it offered only a minimal air threat to Pearl Harbor. Any Japanese aircraft coming from Midway to Pearl Harbor would be spotted by Hawaiian stations on the other smaller islands to the Northwest of Oahu. The biggest threat it offered was for Japanese air search & reconnaissance. It was also not possible for the Japanese to maintain any supporting surface naval units in the defense of Midway for any extended period of time due to the practical logistical issues that Japan faced.
