What happens though if the replay official doesn't go back far enough to know there was a potential touch earlier in the play? Nothing the referee can do about that.
So the system is flawed.

There is no perfect system. Call it flawed if you like, but any fix you might come up with to fix the flaw you perceive will be accompanied by more flaws. The system in place has been subject to review numerous times by those to whom it matters most (that group does not include you), and is the best balance according to their needs.
