"Obviously whether someone should be ejected or not is a judgement call, and a judgement call can be reversed. 9.02 c: [I]If a decision is appealed, the umpire making the decision may ask another umpire for information before making a final decision."

You are incorrect if you are indicating a judgement call can be appealed.
9.02(a)Any umpires decision which includes judgment ******** is final

You are misinterpeting 9.02(b)
If there is a reasonable doubt that any umpires decision is in conflict with the rulesthe manager may appeal the decision and ask that a correct ruling be made. Such an appeal shall be made only to the umpire who made the protested decision.
9.02c)
If a decision is appealed, the umpire making the decision may ask another umpire for imformation before making a final decision.

You have to use things in the correct order. You can not disregard 9.02(a) so you can interpet 9.02(c) to fit your needs
