Actually it does make sense..... The play only appears to be a tie when viewed by the human eye. But since that's the only method available to us on the field to measure the timing of the play it's called a tie. Other methods of measuring the timing of the event would show that it was indeed not a tie. In other words if you had a device that could view the action in, as the OP states, nanoseconds you would have a different view (timing measurement) of the play and I'd be willing to bet the farm that the play would not be a tie.
