I think it is inconsequential really to people that watch soccer regularly. It is annoying, but not to the point I want to change the channel.
I find it the same as NBA players not getting called for traveling or a carry...ever, James Harden flopping all over the place, and refs giving preferential treatment to super stars.
I find it the same as NFL/College Football throwing players out for targeting when it is obvious there was no intent. PI calls, holding calls/non calls, etc.
Every sport has problems and things that annoy us as fans. But for some reason, the acting in soccer to try and draw a card/etc. is much more vilified.
