Coach, I think that everyone here is agreeing with you, and that's certainly what the rule states.

However, what I think many are also saying is that, if it's so close that you need 20 minutes and a team of CIA experts to tell the difference between a 2 and a 3 on tape, we shouldn't fault the officials if they get it wrong after looking for 1-2 minutes on a 12" monitor (if they're lucky).
