My hypothesis:
The college administrators and HR employees who refuse to say no to young woke adults are disproportionately the same people who, in the role of parents, coddled these wokesters over the past decade. Their reluctance to say “no” is their legacy to the rest of us.
I suspect you’ve confused “reluctance” with “inability.”
I wrestled with that exact word. I had it as “inability,” then changed it to reluctance!
