My concern is how little this prepares people for life in the real world. How well prepared will those students be when they enter a workplace for the first time and have to handle disagreements?

EDIT: deleted "bigger". It's a concern, not a bigger concern.

Sadly, too many workplaces (Github being the most famous recent example) are succumbing to the same institutionalisation of coddling.
Their highly developed guiltcraft will slash through those disagreements like butter. It might just give them the competitive edge they need.

I guess being cynical does not give me mine.
