I see where you have it wrong. The officials digging through a pile of players to find the ball does not constitute indisputable visual evidence. The player who ends up with the ball in a pile like that may not be the one who actually recovered the ball.
As soon as the ball disappears in a pile the call isn't going to get overturned.
