I'm curious how this will evolve next years.
Fortunately not something we'll have to deal with over here in Europe

That's not correct at least for now. If the crew had UNR and targeting, they would announce both. If replay determined targeting did not exist, UNR would still apply so there would still be a 15-yard penalty. Same is true for other PFs like RTP and KCI. If they only rule targeting and replay feels it was not targeting but should have been UNR they are not able to rule that.
