So what is the protocol here? Let's say the guy who's responsible for the call doesn't see it, but one of the other officials clearly sees a violation. Are officials really taught to not make the call? I find that hard to believe.

My guess has always been that when that takes place and nothing is called it's because one official doesn't want to "show up" the one that missed the call, especially if the one that missed the call is the lead official with more seniority/clout, etc.
