I’m not sure that’s an entirely bad thing.

While I agree with the rest of your post, this would be a bad thing. A malcontent is a malcontent, forced service won't change that. At the beginning we had the leftover losers and druggies that were impossible to get rid of because of the regs requiring us to rehab them. Total waste of time disproportionate to what we could get out of them even if they weren't shitbirds.

I think we’d get a lot more enlistments if the military were what it once was (mission driven, not WOKE), and if its mission were righteous. Given the US’ propensity to start and participate in useless wars over nothing, I think the honor of being there is diminished these days.

Recounting your real life experience with the last draft is helpful. The only remaining hope I have for the snowflakes then would be that they can’t get mates and will not have children. Those offspring would unlikely be other than snowflakes and malcontents themselves and we certainly don’t need more of those kinds of citizens.
