I agree with one very important point the clock stops when the official raises his or her arm and blows the whistle. Not when the contact appears to have occured in the video. They should be listening to hear if the whistle came before the horn.
When the whistle sounds has absolutely nothing to do with when the foul occurs.

If the foul occurred before the horn sounded, then it's a foul, no matter when the whistle blew, and the FTs must be shot.

The only thing the whistle will determine is if time is put back on the clock.
