Most of us don't have a say in what competitions we go to and where we buy our uniforms from though. We do however, have a say in what magazines we read.
As athletes, you're right. However, coaches/program directors do have choices though. Our gym attends 1 Varsity Brands event per year, and that's because it's one of the closest competitions to us. Based on some of the things that happened at our event this year, not results based either, we may not return next year. There was no water for athletes in warmup, no ice for an injured athlete, messing up warmup times for a team (@TwistersPride flipped out-it was pretty hilarious in hindsight), and legality "warnings" on our scoresheet for skills that were not illegal. I don't know that I want to return. We don't buy uniforms from them either.
