I suspect there’s a higher probability of a muffing team recovering than a fumbling team, especially on kick returns. A fumble 10 yards into the return caused by contact with the kick coverage looks very different than a muff in the end zone with the kicking team still seconds away.

This is hot, even if I only understood half of it.
