The CAPTAIN made the decision to do this. I don't really think he cares about getting reimbursed. He did something nice for everyone on the plane and will
be remembered for doing the right thing. Along with setting the parking brake.

You fail to understand when people do things like this aka things that aren't their jobs you enable a culture where managers expect it. If he hadn't fed them it might have made the news as "united strands pax for hours with no food, congress to act". This is how changes are made, it is how the extended delay program came about. If every captain tries to save the world nothing changes. Do your job and only your job.
we are the glue that holds these failing operations together, maybe it's time to let it all fall apart. I do no favors and every decision I make so for my own benefit and no one else.

Absolutely. He's the problem, the reason for every single overreaction by the company. People buy tickets on United to go on honeymoons, get home in time to see their kids born, bury parents, bury children. It's embarrassing to know you wear the same ALPA pin as these absolute turds like Archiee.
Guys like Archiee, it's almost like they're on the spectrum; they can only see things through this distorted lens that the company is deliberately screwing up, and god forbid we lift a finger to help move the ball just over the goal line. When it's actually 100,000+ employees every day operating 2,000+ flights every day, and that operational friction will invariably occur.
