Agreed with the good comments.
The problem I have with it is that if the referee had caught it, it would have been nothing more than a yellow and a zero suspension.
On the one hand it's good that if they get away with it uefa can suspend them later but they need to go a bit further where diving for a penalty is an automatic red.
Rule's been in place for ~4 years now and this is the first step in by uefa. Need to keep it up.

"Uefa has risked antagonising Arsenal further by confirming that there are no plans to institute a regular programme of video referral for matches under its jurisdiction or issue an anti-diving directive in the light of the Eduardo da Silva controversy."
