1 - Absolutely that was a time for fairness, and that's [I]why[/I] the floor was called over.  The problem there was that the cards couldn't be positively identified - when the floor looked at them they weren't the cards the player claimed they should have been.  At that point there's really nothing that can be done, fair or otherwise.
 
2 - Zorba has it.  What Grossberger and I are saying is that once a hand has gone to showdown and the cards have been turned over, if a mistake is about to happen you're obliged to say something.
 
If the hand [I]hasn't[/I] gone to showdown, or it has, one player has shown their hand and the other just mucks then absolutely keep your mouth shut because you can't know there's a mistake in progress.
 
Note too that OP is talking about a tournament, [B]not[/B] a cash game.  Tournament rules typically require all hands to be turned face up at showdown which is one of the main reasons I'd have wanted to prevent Player A from mucking her cards - they're supposed to be turned over anyway [I]and[/I] Player B is playing the board.  Cash games don't usually have that rule and the situation would be treated differently.
