I agreed, as long as a penalty system is implemented consistently across all the official competitions then any system is acceptable.
Fair or not fair it they are the rules to follow at all competition and everyone much deal with it.

It was a great idea to beta test the color card penalty system at IRI.
I do like the idea of using color card penalty system.
It is recognized worldwide because it is used in international soccer. It will convey penalties quickly to the audience and teams when the cards are held up instead of flags tossed on the floor.

Only change I would suggest is to have the referees show the cards immediately when the violent is detected and expand the reason for the penalty afterward.
