No, it’s not a restriction on them, and in this situation they have the decidedly upper hand.

It’s the custom of my community for a woman to wear a tallis. I see three generations of women and girls wearing them at services at my shul. When does our tradition become Tradition? Are we going to arest women for praying at the wall wearing their great-grandmothers’ tallis?

I think you are are blowing that out of proportion. As to getting arrested it depends on how much of a disturbance they make by trying to make a statement.
