Also recovery speed, if a WR is 4 yards ahead of a CB 40 yards downfield and he sees dudes hands go up he'd just tackle him 15 is better than 50.

I get the idea but it doesn't always play out that way. You have to remember that many of these penalties happen on 3rd down or 4th down where you really don't want to take a penalty. Conceding even 15 yards can be a backbreaker for a defense.
