The one second lag time is only used in determining whether to reset the clock or not. If the official had definite knowledge that the clock should have stopped at 0:33 and the clock is at :29, they reset it to :33. In the same instance, if the clock is actually at 0:32, no reset is allowed because you allow for the 1 second lag. That's how the lag is taken into account.

WRONG! The official had definite knowledge that the whistle went at 33.8. That is definite knowledge that the clock should have stopped by 32.8. This is the definition of allowable lag time. Lag time allowance does not go away just because the timer did not stop within allowable lag time.

Another Coach thinking they know it all. You might want to read the rule book. I don't have my rule book with me, but I'm 99.9% confident that I am not wrong.
