Ugh... everything goes back to politics with you.
I will say though, your statement makes it all the more bizarre that you're a fan of sports.
Most uniform rules aren't for the purpose of preventing one team from having a competitive advantage over the other. You're barking up the wrong tree about that. A team with black socks doesn't have an advantage over a team with white socks. The uniforms are tangential to the game. The ball is the center of the game.
And a softer ball does help the offense. There's really no disputing that, otherwise, why would they do this? If they didn't feel like they could perform better with a ball that wasn't properly inflated, then they would play with properly inflated balls.
How the hell is that political? The Zeitgeist encompasses everything within a society.
I didn't say they're regulating uniforms to that end, I said they're headed in that direction, so any current bit of evidence is as useless as my conjecture concerning it.
And if a softer ball helps the offense, I guess we have to figure a harder ball hinders it? What the hell is the point of that? Added obstacles to aid the defense? You see how it goes? In that vein, everyone can complain. Let them play and stop the micro-management. It doesn't help, but it sure does hinder, considering the divine image these losers are trying to uphold; they now have a team and personnel being accused of cheating. Because idiot rules have marked them as cheaters.
