If not against law, it's almost certainly against HR policy at the institution.

I'm not sure but regarding HR I did a training course at that and this institution and letters are required and must be obtained and read prior to hiring somebody. Even if they are weighted with a 0, which is allowed, they must be obtained prior to a hire.

BTW I'm not really an appropriate role-model/example as I neither think I will make it realistically, nor do I want/need to be a PI.

Sure but is a measure of a phd being on track whether they will make it as a PI one day or not? Maybe it is

In my experience, for most people: yes. Given the reactions I get when I say I'm not interested in being a PI, I'd say mortified isn't that far off of they like me and "yeah I knew you couldn't make it" if they don't.

Similar reactions when I say I don't want kids actually.
