I have seen horrendous caprice by FAs, against others and myself. Yet, I never would grab a FA to show them a BP they had dropped, or argue with them, merely to point out that they were in the wrong. Why, after being seated, couldn't OP have let it pass? Passengers never win these confrontations and get booted all the time.
