I disagree with this train of thought completely. In this case you saw the ball tipped by B but you still allowed a wrong call to be made. I'm sorry, I don't want to hurt my partners pride, but if I see something that is wrong, and I know its wrong, I will discreetly question his/her call. We OWE it to the teams that are playing to ensure that we get the calls right. That won't always happen, but when we know we saw something we can't pretend it didn't happen.

Just my two cents worth.
