I think the play before the head butt was a pretty obvious block. Let's say that the same play was incorrectly called a charge at the other end -- the whole notion that I should just kick one to high heaven in the name of consistency is just appalling to me.

I wasn't stating whether it was consistent or inconsistent, just that the same play happened minutes before this play and was called one way. It was not a situation where it was called on the other end differently. If I am coach though, and in my opinion have the same play in a row, one time a charge and one time a block, a coach is absolutely going to ask for consistency. Its the same reason officials will say, if its a foul in minute 1 its a foul in minute 31. Now that being said, maybe both calls were exactly correct, but I can guarantee you the coach won't see that way in the heat of the moment.
