However, FIRST-in-Texas _did not_ have to do a deal with UIL that has an unimpeachable negative and exclusionary impact on some present and future students.

If they wanted to play a role in the creation of a UIL robotics competition, they did. By its very nature UIL is exclusionary..FiT is not in a position to make them change how they function, UIL isn't going to change it's rules for a pilot program.

I understand your position that every student should get to participate. As part of a FRC team, they get to do that through the normal FIRST FRC events. UIL doens't let private or home school students compete in any UIL events. At least those kids your fighting for have an the regular FIRST events.
