Really, this does not strike me as a grave injustice worthy of the amount of mental energy you are apparently spending on it.
The point is that being passive about it encourages this type of behavior from FAs. They know that you will complain to UA, and they know that UA will do nothing about it.
The bully bullies because the bully thinks that you are too scared to do anything about it. If you actually are too scared to do anything about it, then the bully is right.
