I second this.
What many in the industry (141 schools, airline training departments, unions, etc) seem to lose sight of is that no one is entitled to a career in aviation. It doesn't matter how badly they want it, how much money they have to fund their training, how many diversity driven lawyers are on their side or whatever sob story they can use to drum up sympathy.
Some people aren't cut out for this line of work and that's that. We'd all be better off if that was enforced stringently.
