While NCOs and SNCOs have obviously "over did it" when addressing very Junior officers I've often found an NCOs polite correction in front of other soldiers often resulted in the junior officer feeling disrespected and wrongly "jacked up".
It's not something that needs to be blown out of perportion. It's a hassle to take a 2LT aside somewhere private away from other soldiers all the time just to tell the guy that his boot laces are hanging out or that his flag is on upside down. THAT draws everyones attention.
An NCO correcting a mistake isn't an NCO trying to embarass a junior officer in front of his or her soldiers.
