Why was scale of indulgences an unethical practice??

Answer 1

Explanation:

abuse of indulgence, or a situation in which a company makes no real effort to eliminate a harmful activity and instead hopes to compensate for this unethical behavior by carrying out "good works" in another area;

organizational impostorism, where a company engages in morally upright posturing while in fact continuing to behave in a completely unethical manner (e.g., greenwashing).
