It happens all the time with defensive holding. Corner gets beats and holds the receiver. Should they place the ball where the ball lands?

I don't have a real problem with spot foul, I would just prefer a 15 yarder. A weak PI call can have too much influence on the game. Torrey Smith made a career of getting those deep PI calls.

Yep, by the same argument, offensive holding should be a spot foul and loss of down. It isn't, but can have just as much of an impact.

Offensive pass interference doesn't have the same penalty as defensive. What you see now is WR's getting physical with corners knowing that 19/20 they won't get called for it. If there is a flag, it will more often than not be on the corner.

Defensive Holding is called when the ball is not yet in the air. That player being held is not the intended receiver. Makes all the difference.
