We eat that call.
2. BU sees and calls a pulled foot that PU knows was not a pulled foot.
We can change that call.
Aren't both situations here judgement calls?
Here is where I am confused.
Isn't going for help to ask for missing information?
Rather than a 2nd opinion about a judgement?
If the latter, where do we draw the line? (Assuming there is a line to draw)
Please advise.

"Was her foot on the bag?" is asking for a missing piece of information needed to make a call.
"What did you have on that call?" is asking for a second opinion on a judgement.
One thing that I was taught as a general rule is that when you go to your partner for help, you ask a question that will have a YES or NO answer.
Was the foot on the base?
Do you have a tag?
Did she bobble the ball?
By doing this, you are not asking for an opinion on your judgment, you are asking for a missing "piece of the puzzle" necessary to make that judgement
