I don't think this is controversial. It's all about the ratios. And this says a lot about your work condition. I got 27 days off annually. Before my child was born I had 26. It's not a game changer... If all my childless coworkers got an extra day off I probably wouldn't even notice. So sure thay should have it, whatever. You Americans can argue about the weirdest things sometimes.

it isnt weird when most workers here dont get sick leave, let alone vacation time. Europeans are straight up ignorant when it comes to the US but they sure do like to spread their opinions.

I suppose we find it weird as you have some dystopian levels of worker rights. Land of the free sure does love to bow down to their corporate masters.

No it is definitely weird when anyone wouldn't be able to get sick days. Every human gets sick. And bringing those germs to work spreads it even worse.

Sorry for expecting a first world country to act civilized.
