He clearly proved that he wasn't ready to be a master - it's not like a martial arts rank that you mostly just get because you're skilled, they also want you to be able to embody the ideals they stand for (flawed as they may be).
They certainly could have trained him better, but that makes them idiots, not assholes. But first and foremost, their most important failure was not detecting that Palpatine was a sith.
Mundi had a special exemption because his species was going extinct, and it was always supposed to be about attachment anyway - it's plausible that Mundi was able to produce offspring without personal attachment. Anakin could never have done it like that.
Martial arts ranks aren’t even all about skill. Typically getting to a black belt or equivalent is done by skill demonstration but raising ranks after that is more community involvement, school upkeep, teaching, etc.
Same in a modern military.
People don't get promoted solely because they can shoot well. It's an important metric for the lowest promotions possible, but if you're widely known to be emotionally and morally messed up, you're not making it past lance corporal.
Go far enough and there is literally a board of people who decide on whether or not you are promotion worthy for entirely subjective reasons. If you throw a tantrum in the meeting like Anakin did, you just proved them right.
I don’t know if it’s cannon anymore, but mundi definitely didn’t have attachment towards his children.
He was abusive and completely detached
