When you can define more fully where the video to be referenced is coming from, I can answer that question.
Not if the ref can't look at video (or rather is not supposed to). Referees will not look at video in a question--that's in the Manual, Section 5.
I think the main problem here is in interpretation, not in the rules or even necessarily the particular refs. Interpretation is a tricky thing to get both correct and consistent. There may not even be a solution.

I would personally be fine with the webcast video being used for evidence. It's pretty clear to see that there wasn't a penalty even in the video that I linked. I'd be fine with just using that.
I'm suggesting a change to that specific rule (Section 5), especially regarding eliminations.
I agree that the fault lies in interpretation. I would just appreciate it if the GDC left fewer of these rules in the manual.
