Actually, it is the umpire's job which now becomes more difficult as there is no preventive applications taking place.
You know as well as I that many of these coaches are not that savvy on equipment. Now, I suspect umpires will have to deal with "in game" challenges from opposing teams which will not bode well for the flow of the game or an umpire not well prepared to deal with such things.
IMO, it may be a problematic move that in the past was preempted by the pre-game check.
IOW, I do not trust some coaches to not take advantage by making this part of their game strategy.
