I think it all boils down to when you see the clock.

If you are looking at the clock when you blow the whistle, you may see upto 1 second tick away and have nothing to correct.

If you blow the whistle, then look to the clock. Any time that rolls off will be excessive since by the time you stop the whistle, locate the clock, focus on the time, and register what it says, 1 second has elapsed.
