You said it yourself it's because of the speed of the game.
There is always going to be the human element in the game, but if the ball is truly not a HR or vice versa and there is technology to correct it why not use it.
IMO, it's a Cop out. As mentioned Football / Basketball Officials are the best at what they do but Replay is used. IMO baseball should be no different.

Then I assume you have no problem with replacing the home plate umpire's duties of calling ball and strikes by using the computer, instead?
After all, MLB has the technology to get every call right, and there would be no delay in the game.
