I don't understand your post. It sounds like we are in perfect agreement on the point you made, along with DTTB. It
is a correctable error.
My concern with the post to which I replied is that I believe the poster was stating to have a conversation with the partner and let the partner override you even when you already know you are wrong.
I agree with you. If a mistake was made with rule interpretation that the umpire immediately realized, then just overturn the call right away. There is no need for a "short discussion with your partner .. then let him change the call." First, it is still the original umpire's call. Second, if it's an obvious brain fart, just fix it, as in the example I gave. (And for which I need to apoligize for if it is perhaps considered off topic.)
