These weren't conflicting calls. As Nevada said, conflicting calls require both (or at least two) officials to make a ruling/blow their whistles. My guess is they handled it this way because it was a summer game but...that's no excuse.

One thing they legitimately could've discussed was which team touched the ball last before it went OOB. We do that all the time when we need help on a play as the calling official or, as the non-calling official, we're 150% sure our partner missed something. The only foul that could have been legitimately discussed in the OP would've been a technical foul for contact after the whistle. Failing that they should have let it go. Sometimes plays are missed.
