There's a significant gap between "abuse" and "failure to sugarcoat the truth". When someone publicly advises a large audience to lie on federal forms (which any 5th grader knows is a criminal act), it's not "abusive" to point out the inherent stupidity of both the author and those who agreed.
Nice conspiracy theory, but it ignores one extremely important point: Football is a sport, not a technological arms race. They won't allow iPads and LCD visors for the same reason they won't allow jetpacks and rocket shoes: it wouldn't be a sport anymore.
Not to mention the fact that iPads don't have the power to analyze such large volumes of information in a useful time frame anyway. Getting all that info through an iPad would require communication with some outside computing power, which they could accomplish with their headsets already if it were allowed.
