Allegations that Cesar Chavez abused women and teenage girls. He is/was a hero across the south-west for organising spanish speaking farm workers and creating the UFW. Several cities have main roads named after him and hold annual marches in his honour. Or at least they did hold marches - mostly canceled this year.

Or even a case where an employer has to chose between several A+ candidates.

Lycan is bang on.
From your posts, you did your absolute best to highlight your talents. You are proud of how you presented yourself.
You'll be stellar in other selections & will get a great role soon, with an employer fortunate to have you.
