This was never EVER what replay was designed for. That's been a SB for the entire history of major league baseball and to call a guy out on a ticky tack call like that would completely run afoul of the spirit of the rule.

By even allowing replays, though, that's what they opened themselves up to. If you allow super-slow-mo, multiple-angle replays, making calls within some subjective "spirit of the rule" is never going to happen, because of technical accuracy ability.
