Especially in a close contest in the last minute or so of the game. (This is a game management discussion.)
There's no rule available that will allow you to put time back on the clock. The clock wasn't started by mistake; it started properly. Even though the official made a mistake in blowing the whistle, the timer didn't make a mistake in starting or stopping the clock.
