And that's going to turn the game into a circus. How often is the timer going to be able to stop the clock at the very tenth you whistle? Never. Coaches are going to want time put back up on virtually every stoppage. Further, how often are you actually looking at the clock when you blow the whistle? Not never, but very rarely.
