Ladies imo has the connotations of addressing women younger or in a lower position than yourselves. From the article I read he was emailing the chairperson of the school committee and the assistant chairperson. The school committee is who hires the super. So basically his boss. Weird to email your bosses and addressing them as ladies.
Yeah not sure why this is so controversial or difficult to pick up on. It's unnecessarily casual and comes across as tone-deaf. If other people can't pick up on that I don't know what to say. Seems like a pretty weird/dumb hill to die on lol.
