Please keep in mind that sometimes employees are punished for considering unionization, so it's possible that them not unionizing is a reaction to that.

Assuming no external pressure, though, I absolutely agree: if workers don't see the benefit in unionizing, they should not unionize.

(Of course, I would also like to see them able to unionize if they do see benefit from it)

True, and I definitely don't mean to deny the existence of illegitimate union-busting efforts.
