It appears that the prime motivator at universities is economic freedom, not academic freedom. While it is obvious to me there was a deliberate slaughter of Jewish European populations during WWI, the reactions of academics, judges and lawmakers around the world is totally bizarre.

Anyone who says Jews were not a prime target is a fool.
However, Acadians (French settlers in Atlantic Canada) were rounded up and deported by the English in 1755-63; a significant percentage of them died in transit and those who remained were chased under laws rewarding Indian scalps: all of this in print of the time & documented. Only in 2003 did the British crown 'recognize' it...the proclamation says

Whereas the deportation of the Acadian people, commonly known as the Great Upheaval, continued until 1763 and had tragic consequences,
including the deaths of many thousands of Acadians – from disease, in shipwrecks, in their places of refuge and in prison camps in Nova Scotia and
England as well as in the British colonies in America;

So according to officialdom they all died of disease and so forth...no deliberate drowning, no scalps taken...
Try applying the same 'recognition level' to WWII and you'll have bellyaching lawyers imperiously demanding their pound of flesh by the hundreds, while emotionally devastated press demands special laws and the European parliament probably finds overwhelming consensus to pass an edict to the effect...

The final admonition to Acadians is "We hope that the Acadian people can turn the page on this dark chapter of their history;"=get over it...
Try imagining what cataclysm would cause addressing a similar official proclamation to other groups struck by similar terrifying events...

The worldwide rule of a certain interpretation was once explained by no other than German PM Schmidt. I think he said that then Federal Germany (and the whole post-WWII order per extenso ) lied its foundation on a received interpretation of WWII and its legacy. Any attempt not to discredit such axioms completely, but only to alter the received version would instantly deprive countries such as Germany (Italy, France, Japan...) of their legitimacy...
