It's a game of inches, guy.

Safeties are worse you lose possession, they get 2 points.

The rule that the Ref didn't call against Seattle makes it a bit more fair if they call it right

Exactly, so why do you want to transform one inch into 20 yards?

At least the defense earns a safety.

Not really, since the ball probably would have gone out of the endzone anyway.

More on this...

That missed call is a non-issue if the defense was required to actually gain possession of the ball in order to gain possession. The mere fact that it would even cross a defensive player's mind to knock a fumble out of bounds rather than recover it should be evidence enough that the rule is fricked up.
