It's a simple part of human nature to become frustrated when certain types of repetitive activities take more time than expected, particularly when the wait feels unjustified. If a karen is holding up the checkout line at a shop because they're screaming at the cashier and trying to redeem expired coupons, most of the people waiting will be justifiably frustrated. If someone is stuck in traffic on their commute home because someone else has decided to drive 20 mph on a one-lane highway, they'll probably get frustrated. If a tank who has reached the latter half of the game refuses to pull more than a single pack at a time out of personal preference, most players will be reasonably frustrated, particularly if the person continues when asked by the party to pull more, or god forbid has a meltdown as these types often do.

People that grandstand on these types issues generally aren't ascendant moral beings. Typically their need to constantly signal their morality and righteousness, while attempting to undermine people with completely reasonable grievances or arguments is actually a strong indicator that they're not a great person. If you spend time on FFXIV twitter, you see a ton of this kind of behavior
Well, that works both ways. People here can bemoan it as much as they want and be angry but the majority doesn't care. But sure, cheer yourself on in your quest for self-righteousness. lol Keep egging yourself on till you can't even tolerate someone not being as good at playing a video game or waste your time or something. In a DF setting you get what you get. I can't even pretend I'm worked up about a run taking a few minutes longer. And I'll still check my gear before trudging on.

And just to give an example of where I personally am coming from, I work on an ITU (ICU for my Americans friends) and I see people dying/suffering on a daily basis. Can't be helped, especially with the current pandemic. (The shout-out for YoshiP was a really nice gesture by the way )
I'm not losing any sleep whatsoever over a run taking longer or we are wiping in DF. For me that's just silly.
