Under that logic why not allow punching?
Think of a BJJ competition like an arm wrestling match -- you can't start kicking the person you're arm wrestling, that would make it something other than an arm wrestling match.
BJJ is a specific martial art -- which is why the rules for the competition are specific to the art.
In BJJ gyms the teaching of more full combat and how it relates to jiu jitsu is covered all the time.

Slamming is part of grappling.

A martial art of grappling, of which slamming is apart of.

Which is why when you compete, you should try to emulate what you can encounter in the real world while trying to remain loyal to the style.
Your argument is just paper thin, is all.
I get it, I told you I've been grappling a long time, I know jiujitsu and I understand the dangers of it (you ignored all of the technicalities that I addressed).
I get it, they have specific rules, I'm saying these rules aren't logical and dudes who get dropped on their heads are already retarded if they don't even know how to defend against it.
