A1 travels when the clock shows 00:10; the official reacts to A1's travel violation by sounding his whistle when the clock shows 00:09; the timer reacts to the official's whistle by stopping the clock at 00:08. Two seconds has elapsed and everybody reacted well within acceptable limits. That is why 1.8 seconds from the time A1 committed the violation until the clock stops is within the time frame that is acceptable.

I hope that this explains my logic.
It explains your logic, but your logic is wrong.

Lag time has nothing to do with how long of a delay is between a foul/violation/anything else and the whistle - lag time is the reaction time of the timer ONLY!!!!!
