I think I would like more areas with tenure-like insulation, but I think I’m more pointing at what happens when you remove it where it already exists.
There’s e.g. much more second-guessing of rank-and-file employees who previously would’ve been shielded by their superiors, these days, which has come with upsides (abuse and harassment getting noticed and addressed way more than it used to) and downsides (professors being publicly censured for saying a Chinese word that sounds a little bit like the n-word, in the context of teaching Chinese words to students).
