Well, they shouldn't be flagging anything marginal off
That's often the case now anyway - if the linesman flags and the ref blows then it won't stand even it if VAR technology subsequently shows it to be onside. It's only if the ref doesn't blow up (which they usually do) that the linesman's flag is overruled.
