uncriticized
Escaped negative feedback
Uncriticized describes something that has not received criticism or negative evaluation.
A policy might go uncriticized because it's genuinely sound, or because no one dares challenge it: The decision passed uncriticized by the board.
The word often implies that criticism might have been warranted but wasn't delivered.
