I would argue it's rude to promote 7 knights. Just checkmate and move on. You shouldn't make someone sit around.
The player with the 7 knights isn't forcing their opponent to do anything except make the choice to resign or play on in an obviously lost position.
If a player is going to have a "never resign" mentality, they need to realize that they risk moments, where their opponent isn't seeking the quickest victory, and stop acting like a self-righteous victim when it happens. The resign button exists for a reason. Save some time, take the L, and move on to the next game.
Some people are taught to never re sign and to keep going to the death, to last man to the last breath. Like the 300 Spartans and all other Greek cultures like the Athenians, Macedonian etc etc and as a result would never accept defeat. Sometimes it's cultural upbringing.
