Can a local building official reject/deny a statewide product approval?
A building official may deny the local application of a product approval which has received statewide approval, based upon a written report signed by the official that concludes the product application is inconsistent with the statewide approval and that states the reasons the application is inconsistent. Therefore, unless a local building official is willing to provide the above "written" report, he has no authority to reject your statewide product approval. The decisions of local building officials shall be appealable to the local board of appeals, if such board exists, and then to the commission, which shall conduct a hearing under chapter 120 and the uniform rules of procedure. Decisions of the commission regarding statewide product approvals and appeals of local product approval shall be subject to judicial review pursuant to Florida Statute 120.68.

If he has the right to reject/deny why not. But if he doesn't have any rights to approved or deny it, its much better for him to keep his mouth shot. Thank you for posting.
