My issue is with not what you're trying to press.
My issue is that technology not being able to decipher 1% as 1%, instead it considers the ball to be hitting less than 50%.
So basically from 1% to 49% ball hitting the stumps, the umpire is given the benefit of the doubt.
Hawkeye technology isn't advanced enough to decompose this further.
You might say it's 1% of the ball hitting the stumps, but hawkeye deciphers it as less than 50%. It cannot have an accuracy beyond this.
So if that's the case, you can't argue about 1% and 49% anymore. 1% to 49% is one whole range.
Cool, but that's just your assumption. It's clear you haven't read about how HE works. Please do some research on this first. It calculates how much of the ball is hitting (the percentage I talked about). Paying for it would be pointless otherwise. Everything depends on this calculation. This is about the set of rules from the ICC. If they say change it from 50% to 30%, HE will get it to work that way.
