Kickoff goes into end zone and is caught by a player of the receiving team.  He runs parallel to the end line and then goes to one knee after taking about 10 steps but the ball never enters the field of play.  Referee signals safety.   Five of the other six officials agree.   You do not as you are sure that it is a touchback.   How much hell do you raise before giving up?

LOTS and LOTS

I agree that is an option. However, I did not see that he had a flag down for the illegal kicking.
At about 3:22 on the video you will see R throws a flag towards the spot of the foul.
