It is somewhat of a safety issue at times. What harm does a short whistle by only the covering official do to harm anything?

Hmmm, you know what they say about making assumptions?
What Ref inSoCA is saying is we are a high school (NFHS rules) association standard 5-man for varsity that does
not use the NFHS mechanics manual. The assoc has developed its own and that's what we teach/use.
I guess what Ref in SoCA is saying, how do you reconcile the belief a whistle is needed at the end of an obvious incomplete pass against the commonly held notion that the play kills itself and there is no whistle necessary?
