I have to admit, I worked FJ at the college level for a few years and some of those PAT kicks were BLASTED through. It's not as easy a call as some would make it. And if it was *that* close, I went with my gut instinct and didn't give it a second thought.
It sounds like we're saying the same thing. Accepting that there is an exception to EVERY rule, "most" instantaneous decisions made on ANY football field for a wide variety of "that close" (bang-bang) decisions are based on the (informed and experienced) "gut instincts" of the covering officials, as well they should be.
