There's not enough detail or background here to make confident armchair readings about anything.
When someone asks for something you should respect their wishes, and this company chose to ignore that and follow the protocol despite being asked not to. From that alone I know that this company is not somewhere good to work. Putting following the rules when you don't need to ahead of people's welfare is a huge red flag.

What you're advocating is etiquette and politeness, and as such it's not really possible to disagree with it. But part of etiquette and politeness is tolerating other parties' mistakes.
