I'm sorry, but at the end of the day "missed calls" are a part of the game and always will be you have to weigh the benefits to the flow of the game as well.

Minor penalties are often open to interpretation from the officials. For things like that, I agree that no coach's challenge should be available. It's up to the ref to decide.
But offside is something set in stone. You are either over the line, or you aren't. It's a black and white rule. While the ref is the one who blows the whistle, it's something that can be decided via slow motion review whether the correct call is made or not. If robots and sensors were making those calls, it would be 100% correct. Offsides are something that shouldn't be missed. I'm of the opinion that the coach's challenge is acceptable in this case.
