Autosaves: Should they be enabled or not?

I have an interesting idea, not for casual gameplay, but for tournaments or serious games.

Each player keeps a recording (or, if there are no technical possibilities, warns in advance) of the game screen. Any auto-battle, or any other action (or even cheating, like claiming a hero is level 10 when they're actually level 11) or any other subtle detail can be requested by the opponent after the game in the form of a video clip or screenshot from that video.
In such cases, the player will think twice before using the console (or anything else), as they risk a real loss if the opponent later reviews the recording and sees that the requested auto-battle was risky. In that case, I think the opponent would be justified in declaring the other player's defeat.

The option of requesting a replay of a strong block can also be explored by the opponent. There are many other things that can be thought of, up to tracking the execution of the rules, because you can't always judge by the save files (at least regarding the use of multi-defense).

In general, I think this is a worthwhile idea to include in certain regulations, and of course, taking into account the players' capabilities and testing this method (some forum users already have a certain skill in working with videos and online broadcasts).
Also, videos can be used later as a basis for tutorials to help new players
