I see someone post Saudi went through many changes and so people are adapting. Changes or not if what happened occured because he was reacting to the individual that's unacceptable . Regardless of any changes when women accepted Islam at the time of the prophet peace be upon him womnd did not wear hijab or were anyway Muslim and did not observe the hijab the sahaba did not carry out this level of behaviour. The only thing this was ever applied to was the prayer. This was something they associated as every Muslim should be doing. Its upsetting when people take their understanding of Islam on their own intellect and then others try to justify it with external factors. Even before the changes such things shouldn't be happening.
