As far as it being a judgement call, well, the refs make judgement calls all the time. That's what they're paid for.

It's just too grey an area for me and would create more problems than it would solve.
Pepe getting tapped on the back and holding his face? Clear embellishment and no problems with a card there.
Player gets softly stamped on and rolls around holding his ankle? You just can't ascertain what is real and what is not.
