With the technology that these networks have, you would think they would have this yellow line (only for viewers) to show if the ball breaks the plane.

If ball breaks plane, then the line shows it or vanishes. I know, it's crazy but they do have the technology.

As far as the hand raised by an official, the signal is for a dead ball but it is for officiating purposes only. As an official, we cannot expect players to stop if they see our arm raise.

In fed, we use it to allow the other officials to blow their whistle, especially at the U. Also in fed, the player is down when knee touches, and ball is dead. Players' knee down kills the play, hopefully not an IW!
