Question Illegal material

At a recent regional, my students noticed a robot using a material that we had wanted to use but could not find a "legal" way of using it. The material was not available at SPI and was neither in the kit nor on the AHL. The robot was able to use this material quite well and my students wanted to know why we don't do the same thing. My problem is what to do/ tell them? We will not use illegal parts even if we can "get away with it" but what about the team that is using it? What about the inspectors who missed this part at two seperate regionals even though it is a very obvious part? Any advice would be appreciated.
