Depends on how it's done. If they had made a casual inquiry and asked sincere questions in an attempt to learn why attire is important, they would have gotten sincere answers.
But a petition is a way to force an answer to a specific request on your terms, without leaving much room to listen and learn.
And dress is not trivial. It may take more than a one-sentence explanation to describe why. Consider, for a moment, that people are not robots and changing attire may have real impact on how people behave and interact in a social environment like business.

It might, certainly. But on the other hand, there are countless other issues that could be brought up—open office plans, office fraternization, expectations of late night email responses, working hours, salary, and so on—that are directly about how people behave and interact, or do business, that something like dress codes that reach no further than "may have a real impact" kinda fade in importance.
