No way.
Not even anywhere in the same realm of missing the batter going all the way around and 2 umps missing it. Had the runner fallen down half way and the pitcher tagged the bag with him 10 ft away, and 2 umps missed it, then yeah. Otherwise it's crazy to think this play was a worse call.
Is this a million percent more important call, yes. Is it a worse technical call. Whomever thinks this fairly close play at first was a worse call is blind.
