Thoughts on this?
It was always my preferred method of VAR. With this teams are unlikely to challenge those toenail offside goals unless its the last few minutes.
VAR won't be getting involved in other decisions unless a team feels specifically wronged. And on the contrary teams can ask VAR to have a closer look at something they might not have checked

I need to know how I feel about this, mates
It’s not for offside at all though – “goals, penalties, red cards and mistaken identity” I think it’s possibly to work in conjuction with the semi automatic VAR offside that is being implemented.
Managers will not be able to judge very close offsides at all, so it’s fairly irrelevant in that use case. Can see its merit in red cards and penalties though.
What would you challenge if not close goals?
This is perfect. Two reviews per team will limit slow downs.
