Could you not use the spot where the ball was at the point of the IW as your end of kick... after all, the ball is ruled dead the moment an IW blows, and the spot where the ball was when it is ruled dead would be, in this case, the end of the kick.
The NLF uses the spot of the ball at the whistle, but they have no IW rules like the NF. That is not an option in NF and that is why I think the only option is to rekick.

The point is, one team would gain an advantage cuz of the IW, and is not supposed to happen. There was not a player in possession, or a loose ball after player possession to go back to. I see no other option.
