Yes indeed that is definitely over protectiness and that dog should be
retired. I have met several dogs, who were "managed" like your friends dog

nipping people or other dogs.
Aggression is a trait that we do not want to see in a guide dog of any
breed.

Dog ownership is like a rainbow.
Puppies are the joy at one end.
Old dogs are the treasure at the other.
