They get to hold our dominant DL all game and allow the best QB in football to sling it. That's negating one of the most important things SF does.
It's also a disadvantage to scheme heavy offenses. Holding is the best way to offset an offense that relies on extreme detail and coordination between the quarterback and receiver.
The era of the timing-based offense is a thing of the past thanks to the new rules.
You may be right, but holding is still against the rules. Enforce the rules evenly and everything changes.
