Young people are much more likely to protest, have unrealistic expectations, not follow process, behave unpredictably and take risks.

I often have to explain to them why the thing that they saw working for 2 seconds in that tiktok clip will likely not work unattended for their full day exhibition weekend.
But those are some people from that generation, there are just as many that just want to learn and don't want to take shortcuts.
I agree however that overestimating your own abilities is a generic trait of you g people regardless of generation — but that is how they learn — how we all learned.
In general people protest when they can't just change things on their own terms. Arguably older generations have less of the issue (but really, they like to yell at the clouds like everyone else IMHO)

Someone with enough experience will be better at masking these traits and not have their process violations or risk taking surface too much.
Either it's completely transparent to everyone and people don't even acknowledge it as process violations (e.g. the more experienced worker just happens to have higher permissions and can officially do whatever they want. Staying 3 or 4 years at a place will give you an amount of permissions that wouldn't make sense on paper for your role) or they know how to stay under the radar.
