If your suggestion is not to call this a violation (not necessarily the OP) then I would disagree. This is likely obvious to someone observing they did not step out of bounds. And it prevents situations of sloppiness when the game is on the line. And for the record, the NCAA addressed this as well with video and made it clear we should call these violations anytime seen. And if you look at what happened a few years ago near the end of a game when this was not called, and the shit storm that followed, I think we should call these when they happen.
