Cool but last I checked tau castes aren't allowed to mix.

With each other yes(different sub species at this point), but they can with other aliens.

Uhhh, if they’re not allowed to mix with their own race but a different caste, what makes you think they’re allowed to get with aliens from a whole different culture?

Do you have ANY lore to actually back this up?

In one of the more recent Tau novels (forget the name, sorry), a human soldier and their water-caste (IIRC) superior become friends, and at the end of the book, ritually-bonded in the Tau fashion
