Nitpicking but it's "who" not "whom". One tries to acquiesce someone, so "who" is used as it's the direct object, not the indirect object.

- “whom” is for all objects, no direct/indirect distinction
- I’ve never heard “acquiesce” used with a direct object and dictionaries don’t seem to have either
- but they said “aquisice” anyway so who knows
So yeah, it’s needlessly flowery and incorrect (name a more iconic duo), but the “whom” isn’t this time (although “who” would also be good).
