according to the maharal in Menachos the midas hadin can sometimes include din on a person not doing all the mitzvos that they could have done (not talking about bitul aseh) but he doesn’t specify when. The kochvei ohr gives this as one of the differences between human law and Hashem’s din. I guess it’s also a difference between the relationship of parents / educators to a child / student and the law. Parents can get upset if a child is not doing as well as they could be but the law is happy as long as no-one kills anyone else.
