On this point, I will partially agree with you. It is very understandable that the union would prefer to avoid creating anything like a precedent. So there is nothing weird or wrong with a union not wanting this.
The problem is that the union is exerting force to prevent an individual from making an individual choice that they feel is mutually beneficial to themselves and their employer. The union is demanding hostility and divisiveness, and things like this do actually stand as an example of how unions often place ideology above the people they are supposed to represent.
