Fair enough, but even the tenured professors were untenured at some point before so they did matter and were not problematic enough to deny tenure. And tenure doesn't really apply the same for adjuncts or some lecturers, who are perhaps even more dependent on student evals. And of course it depends on the seriousness the university takes teaching, as there are R1s that are more research oriented and care less about teaching, but they account for 1% of all universities.
