As others have stated, in any situation like this, you need to immediately ask, with the utmost Gracious Professionalism, for a ruling from the Lead Robot Inspector at the event.
And then please keep in mind that the ruling of the LRI is the "Last Word" on the subject at that event. I've had teams go off and try to get the Regional Director, Planning Committee members, etc, to try to overrule me on technical issues.

R78(D) only provides an exception for solenoid valves. ALL other parts MUST meet the 125 PSI requirement.
