The OP did it right on the floor. He let his partner's call (a no call) stand rather than inserting himself into a spot where he thought his partner had a good look. In hind sight, he was right. His partner did have a good look. He's only questioning himself because it was the rare case where the primary official just froze. It's a learning experience for the partner, not the OP.
It seems from reading the OP that it wasn't a train wreck, and from T you can't always tell if it was a flop or not. IOW, it doesn't seem like one of the "gotta-get-its" that we see every now and then when our partners are straight lined or focussed elsewhere.
I've had enough partners dial in from T and grab a shooting foul right in front of my L position when I had a clean block to know better than to go reaching for anything other than a train wreck.
