Yes to this. Though I do think that what the use of VAR has shown (and MLS has been using it just a little less time than the Netherlands) is that a lot of thinks that we may think are dives actually do have some level of contact - if you are running full out and someone gets your ankle a tiny bit it can easily send you sprawling.

However just because there is contact doesn't mean it should be a foul. The interpretations have to be tightened up because of VAR, I think. Maybe focu on it being substantial contact or something like that.
