I understand what you're saying and agree with you that it's most likely never coming back, but I hate hearing that it's a "player safety issue." Know what else is dangerous to player safety in football? Tackling.
Special teams/kickoffs are supposed to be part of the game and the current kickoff rules have taken away a significant part of the kickoff play. Why not just give the receiving team the ball at the 20 yard line after a touchdown or at the 35 after a field goal? That will really help with player safety.
