If you're Postle and Justin is not on your side, you have to worry about Justin finding out and then banning you and pressing charges. From Postle's perspective, that seems a lot riskier. With Justin being involved, you just need technology to get it from the booth's computers to Mike, which is pretty simple. You also don't have to worry nearly as much about getting caught since the person in charge of catching you is in on it. When there's an internal investigation, Justin runs it and conveniently finds out its all "fabrications." That makes the whole operation way less risky.
With Justin in on it, this whole story is so simple. The technology is simple, the explanations for why commentators and players raising suspicions and being dismissed are simple. If Justin is innocent, at a minimum he's awful at his job, and the level of sophistication required to get to where Postle got to goes up orders of magnitude.
Justin is guilty.
