It's always good to have multiple sets of eyes on the ball in boundary situations, if it can be done and still comply with other responsibilities.

That said, what if you saw something different? What makes one opinion "better" than the other? Sometimes there is a reason -- angle, being blocked out, closer, etc. You (the crew) need to decide whether the reson the opinions differ is sufficient to not go with the opinion of the guy who has responsibility for the call.
