Contriteness used in a sentence

Contriteness in a sentence as a noun

Not, to be clear, because of any contriteness on Nixon's part.

To err is human, but I would expect a level of contriteness, rather than doubling down on the "nothing to see here" attitude.

Maybe it's the repeated 'what happened to me was justified and I thank those who make the decisions' groveling-like contriteness, even though objectively that should be a good thing.

Do you consider it much different from the practice of denying parole when convicts continue to profess innocence instead of professing contriteness?
