You’re conflating things. Apologizing would have worked at defusing tensions. It would not be a free pass to going back to normal like nothing happened.
That’s the mindset of a “nice guy” — “I was nice, you owe me sex.” “I apologized, give me what I want and stop judging me for my actions.”
Accountability is still a thing and no one owes this man anything, certainly not a position of authority.
