It makes absolute sense to at least trial it. Take the Jimenez and Luiz situation as an example. Luiz stayed on and was still able to head the ball and be involved physically in the game even though he was at risk of concussion or damaging himself further.

Gives clubs less reason to pressure their players into staying on and gives them more freedom in stopping players from hurting themselves
