It's like an official who rushes in to correct a 3 point basket to a 2 by stating that the shooter landed on the wrong side of the line. That's NOT the rule. And neither is his explanation of why to change the call in the OP.

Go read the OP again. He did come in with a block call initially. The stuff about why was the after conversation. He may have been wrong in why he called it, but don't change the situation. The OP first tried to trump his partner's block call by claiming PCA. Then the partner responded with the (bad) reason he had a block. The OP should have never said a word about it being is primary when his partner came up with the block. The only conversation should have been about which even happened first, but that was obvious.
