It's the rules, whether you happen to agree with them or not. Definite knowledge is what you see, not what you guess.
If you can find a rule anywhere that will let an official guess at how much time to put back up on the clock, please feel free to cite it.
If you put "something" back on the clock even though you aren't sure what that "something" should accurately be, what do you plan on using to justify your actions post-game?

If I see the clock moving after the whistle, and it hits 0.0 before I can make a number out, I am 100% definite that 0.1 was on there at some point after the whistle. If I see multiple numbers, then I am 100% definite that 0.2 was on there.
That's not a guess, and that's all the justification I'll need post-game.
