But, of course, they wont since the goal isn't really balance but increased scoring.

Sounds like the NBE.

What's your explanation when you miss a call?

Shouldn't the L be in close-down so he is receiving the play and has the slot angle?

Im fairly new to this but if it were me if I missed the travel then i definitely have to hit him for the obvious hook IMO.

I usually don't have one, but I've never had video to look at after the fact. Sometimes a reason for a missed call is obvious, straightlined, transition play with no official in position, etc. But in this play the travel is obvious to me from every angle. Just wondered.

Of course you would never miss and obvious travel.

Yes, obvious to you from the angle of the video screen. I'm sure someone with video of one of your games or my games says the same thing when we miss a call.

+1 And it pretty much preceded all the contact being debated here. Put a POE on that and see what happens in the college game.
