OVERRULE is most appropriate (in the ordinary-language sense) when, not only is the correct answer considered obvious, but the original judge is nevertheless not expected to get it right (e's either obstinate or has become inactive) - which is why e gets dinged. AFFIRM is somewhat similar in its effect on those who disagree with the judge, blocking em from further appeals.
