What has made the game so popular is the simplicity of the rules. This is important if you want the game to continue flourishing.
Don't take me wrong. The game at the higher levels is beset with issues. But the video may not be the answer. It will add a level of complication that will detract from the game.
Video does causes issues in those games it is used in. It is a subjective interpretation of what is seen, not objective- subjective because it is one person's interpretation of the rules. Cricket, Ruby League, Union, Grid Iron- they all end up with controversial decisions being made- sometimes.
Can you imagine what would happen if such a decision happens with a crowd that is volatile? I would not like to think about it.
You may scoff at this, but don't kid yourself. This is a real crowd control matter.
