I never tell a coach to sit down. After the HC approaches me, and I provide the explanation, I might say something like, "Coach, I've explained why I called it the way I did. It's time to drop it."

The AC had no business trying to help in this situation. Sounds like a newer official who's excited he knows some rules. He was "right," but his timing was horrible here. Now both of you have added gas to the fire. Even so, his reaction was more professional in the end since he's the one who actually walked away.
