Bottom line from my point of view, there are too many reviews in sports. I get that we want to get things right, but they are usually taking too long or unncessary.

No standard is needed. No definition is needed. As I wrote, it is at discretion of Referee. Look at NFHS Rule 2 Section 3. The play in question happened in a way that was not seen accurately by the officials. Nothing wrong with reviewing this type of play for that reason. They review fights for people coming off benches. This is mostly done because officials can not accurately see and recall those that come off the bench in many fighting situations. There is too much happening for processing. This is similar IMO and a review would have solved the whole issue.
