I didn't say you can use the monitor in this case - my point is even in cases that can be reviewed the play by play has no standing unless its the official equipment.
When correcting book errors the 2 scorers rely on themselves, then they rely on the official book unless the floor officials have definite knowledge. From my experience I'm not trusting the people (students) who enter the information into the computer. Not even as the tie-breaking vote.
