Mostly agree with what you said, looks like you also got downvotes though. The current sentiment is robbing kids of being able to accomplish things and be proud of themselves.
Like many things, extremes are easy and the lazy advocate for one extreme or the other but what is best is a healthy balance.
At the core I think a lot of adults grew up believing success or failure is their identity, it's who they are. Instead of overcoming that false belief, they twisted reality so that failure is as good as success. Their and their child's identity is still the outcome if their efforts except they dilluted reality and made a negative to be the equal of a positive.
