I like using humans to make all the decisions in sports. It worked using humans for many, many years in all sports, and I personally enjoy watching the game less now. Same for football. If the officials are now screwing up so much that they can't be trusted to officiate without technical aids, then fire them - it's a tough job to get and I'm sure there are good ones waiting in the wings.
Obviously many enjoy these sports more now, so I'm outvoted - I'm fine with that also.
