From your article: ‘“There is still a bit of wiggle room to complain about the call. It feels a bit ticky-tack, and “any waving of the arm” feels pretty broad when applied to a football player who will likely be using his arms to run and later, catch the ball that is coming his way.”’
Irrelevant, because the guy who made the invalid signal wasn't even trying to catch the ball. The other guy is the one who caught the ball.

Since when has the t signal been called an invalid fair catch? It’s been used for years as simply a signal by the up man for the returner to not run it out. Never in my life seen it called as an invalid fair catch

In the Iowa situation is a ridiculous thing to call. The ref wasn’t even required to call it as it was subjective. The idea of an invalid fair catch signal is about the dumbest thing the in the world for the Iowa situation.
If the player can’t do the fair catch signal correctly he deserves to be lit up.
