The most stupid rule change in cricket history was changing from the back foot no ball rule to the front foot no ball rule.
Return things to the back foot no ball rule and problem solved.
But realistically it is not difficult for an umpire to look at no balls, if he does not call it then that should be that. If it was a no ball then the umpire himself is dropped for the next test and faces a penalty for not doing his job correctly.
It is not hard to see if a foot crosses a line.
