Are you implying other countries don't have these rules? I would be very surprised if EU countries didn't have similar allowances for border control, for example.

The US border control isn't forcing anyone to do anything, people can choose to not enter the country if they don't like the rules. And honestly, I wouldn't blame them.

I personally wish US constitutional protections extended to everyone interacting w/ US law enforcement, regardless of where that happens, but that's not the case.
