The Jedi council at times is arrogant and condescending. They let their dogma get in their own way at times. This is what allowed Palpatine to manipulate them so effectively.

It’s hard to question the authority of people you highly respect, and who could command more respect than a 900 year old Jedi master? Yet, no one is perfect. It’s hard sometimes to know when to trust your own instincts or conform. Qui-Gon does a good job of questioning while still respecting and working within. Ahsoka arguably does more for the galaxy after leaving the Jedi.

There is no one right answer for everything and no infallible sources. Often best to evaluate decisions individually instead of applying strict dogma. Nothing wrong with rules or standards, but exceptions are not a weakness. They are sometimes a hidden strength.
