I think that you might have the roles in a 'modern', monitored approach cockpit slightly confused.
The PF (Pilot Flying) should be eyes in all the way to DA/MAPT, at which point 'decide' is called. It is the PM (Pilot Monitoring) who will be looking out of the window for the visual cues to land. If the PM is visual, then he/she calls 'Visual, I have control' and lands the aircraft. If nothing is seen, the PM calls 'Go Around' and the PF flies the go around.
In this case, like the REDU/ETAP accident, I suspect that both pilots were looking out at the critical time.
