> If the whole union will quit unanimously if they do that, then they have effective monopoly power over labor for the company.

This is no different from having to accept any other company policies.

A company has a monopoly on its own policies, including whether joining a union is required.

It's very different.

Employees can join a different company. Companies can't magically become a different company. If they have a single union they are forced to work with, that union has monopoly power on labor supply.

Good for union employees, bad for the rest of society
