That's one way to interpret the comment.
Another way, is to read it as, "In this situation, we have interpreted ("assumed") that 1 second has elapsed between blowing the whsitle and looking at the clock."
This second interpretation makes the two case plays consistent.
I'm not saying that the second interpetation is correct -- only that the comment can be read that way.
I agree with Chuck -- the rules / cases / comments should be changed to put back whatever you see.
