They will not be ordained if they do not agree to take the vow of celibacy. Why not have them take the vow BEFORE the years of training as opposed to the very end after they’ve invested? Because they are too invested at that point, they don’t want to have done all that for nothing.

But they know about the vow of celibacy beforehand. Its not like they were tricked into it. They knew about the vow and they CHOSE to take it.
Maybe the church will eventually change their rules or maybe they won’t. Either way, Father Cutie chose it.
