They took the timeout away because they decided to review a play that is not reviewable. It's as simple as that.

I don't have any idea how they justified going forward with the replay, but whatever they thought they were doing, it was in error. You can't review anything that is blown dead, unless it is to determine a change of possession. But that's not what was being reviewed.

So you're right, it was stupid. And that was my point in a nutshell.
