Not everyone is swimming in buckets of FAANG cash and has the freedom to be fired at any time. The pressure to keep putting food on the table is strong, especially when you have kids. Many people see nonsense they have no power to personally fix, and in a big bureaucratic organization even making a ruckus will usually get you nothing but shown the door. So for many, the choice is 1: say nothing, keep your paychecks, and the problem still exists, or 2: say something, possibly lose your job, and the problem still doesn't get fixed because you have no authority. The only resort is whistleblowing, which may or may not work and is losing its protections all the time.
