That review took way too long. I get wanting to get it right, but it simply can't take that long.

I guess I'm saying that if you're going to take 5+ minutes to review a play and at the end you think "I'm pretty sure it's a goal. But since i didn't think it was a goal 5 minutes ago, I'm not going to change my mind" is kind of silly.
A video review means you get a chance to change your mind. Make the best decision you can at that point. It's not like you had "conclusive evidence" for the original call.
But the whole overturning a call requires conclusive evidence has become accepted practice in sports.
