If you call a 20-second review and command center can't find conclusive reason to overturn it within 20 seconds of looking at film, you lose the challenge. Having a couple additional 20 second reviews a game would not slow it down at all, and it would solve these egregious calls that coaches need to occasionally burn their only challenge on.
I think if it requires super-slo mo then it was close enough to to use the call on the field. Replay should only ever be to correct the obvious mistakes.
