It's a story about workers flexing their strength against the boss and having the boss back down. It seems to fit just fine to me.

I can't possibly imagine why you seem to be so offended over all this.

Except it's not really malicious compliance, it's just compliance.
Not a single muscle was flexed.

Its not malicious compliance to hang up on a customer in the middle of a call, or ignore other customers calling during business hours because your boss mandates you take lunch at an exact time? Whatever you say, buddy.
