I see that in 3-4-4h as well Mike, but in 3-4-4a it also says the clock stops the ball "when the down ends following a foul." Just because we stop the clock does not mean we will then always start the clock on the snap. Therefor I think we have to look at 3-4-3 which is the rule that states "when the clock shall start on the snap."
