Sure, video replay points out the few times that the human officials on the scene get it wrong, but gives little credence to the overwhelming majority of calls, some of them "bang, bang", that the human officials get correct.
In games played by actual humans, it's only natural for a little human error to happen on the part of judgement calls. Just my opinion, so take it for what it's worth..
Most of the time these humans get the call right. The problem is that when a single call can make a win a loss then actual accuracy seems more important to me. You still need human judgment after the review, so it’s a tool to assist in making accurate calls.
