The long simmering concern with 141 has always been the lack of strict accountability for checkride performance, ie with enough and time and money you could keep trying for a while until you slipped through. There would be little formal indication that you struggled. There was talk of holding 141 rides to the same accounting standard as 61/135/121 (ie pink slips), but I don't know if that ever got off the ground. The 141 industry may have fought it off... they always marketed their product as insurance against checkride failures.
I haven’t even thought about whether I should or should not include it on my applications. I have worked way too hard to accomplish my dream to get kicked out of an interview for lying. I unsat a stage check, I learned a very valuable lesson and came out a better pilot because of it. From what I gather, having this one “failure” shouldn’t be a big deal and I’ll just list it and if they ask about it, I’ll explain
