Dummy made a joke, declarer went on with it not realizing that he in fact clearly played the Ace. Calling the TD is your right, the Ace has to be played.

The fact that your opps are playing extremely slow, just to annoy you, is very unsporting.

Calling the TD at that point is normal, perhaps you should've done it sooner (although not this TD apparently since he doesn't know the rules). The spirit of adjustments is to get a normal score as much as possible. This case is very clear: 4♥ is always made with 3 overtricks.

The board shouldn't be canceled (it's not even possible to cancel this board), the score should clearly be +510, and I'd give NS a penalty for deliberately slowing down the game and acting as jerks.
