You have to make a call one way or the other. While it is true that if you make the wrong call, you might hurt one team, if you make no call, you hurt everybody. Let's say you conference with your partner after calling time and decide that the ball did hit F1 after all and should have been fair, how do you fix that one?
My take is, call what you see. If you want to be conservative, call it fair and then reverse the call after a conference, but you have to make a call one way or the other.
