But there is a chance he might have. Don't you get it? It's never a problem of, 'oh he couldn't have prevented it anyway' it's the other way around 'he could've prevented it'. The point is that having an in-field referee improves everyone's safety, even if the actual effect may be superficial. Between having and not having a referee is like having or not having a seatbelt in a car; or have laws or no laws at all in a society; or having police or no police to control crime - it is just better to have them than not. Given how dangerous the world of Remnant is, they should have learned this lesson ages ago and implemented it to prevent any mishaps.
