@amydiehl just gonna add to this, that these practices fuck over disabled people and people with chronic illness as well in many cases. I cannot pursue an academic career beyond postdoc because I cannot afford or get proper healthcare in most countries outside Germany - or in the rare cases where I can, the bureaucracy is not worth it for a short time period. This automatically kills any chances for professorship in Germany.
I'm lucky that's not my goal at all. But still. I don't relocate for a mediocre paying job without security. Especially not to the US, and especially not from next year onward.
