Agree with your description. He slapped it with his palm, but not forcefully, no accompanying display, etc.
By rule, the T could be supported. By practice, I'm surprised this one was called. From what I see on the video I'd pass.
Of course, everything happens within a context and maybe there was something else that happened prior to this to make the officials more "touchy" on this one.
