I think entitled baby would be if he stomped his feet and clenched his fists and insisted he be allowed to wear whatever he wanted. Quitting the tournament is more like he truly DGAF. I would call that not giving a fuck.
Okay, good point. He didn’t exactly complain, he just left. But when he said “it’s a matter of principle”, it comes off as him expecting special treatment. The organization was just trying to enforce their rule.
I think you’re reading that into it. I don’t see “It’s a matter of principle” implying anything besides that staying would go against his principles. Oh well.
