Comparing this to the Joyce call is pretty silly. The Joyce call is 100% without a doubt the wrong call. There is no legitimate argument otherwise. Here we have a judgment call. I disagree with the judgment for sure, but I even more strongly disagree with the sentiment that the umpire should err on the side of the pitcher in a situation like this. To me, that's just as bad as saying it's wrong for a hitter to try and bunt in that situation.
