Others may shorten it but when we change something because of a rule we need to be able to explain the rule, what happened and what we're going to do now about it. Imo.
I've done something similar, when my partner called a travel from the trail position when a shooter caught her own airball in front of me at lead (2 man game). I chatted with him to make sure I knew what he was calling, then we reversed the call. B coach wanted an explanation, and other than questioning me for reversing the call (I should have let my partner make the announcement), he was fine. He already knew the rule anyway.
