But if there's even the smallest doubt about possession, I am chopping it and not granting the TO until I've confirmed possession by the team requesting it.

If this was a clean rebound with simultaneous TO as described, I see no reason to deduct time from the clock. That is a well executed TO call by the calling team.
What does possession have to do with chopping the clock? You're only looking for a touch.
