Then why penalize a different (or even the same player) for playing through the whistle when they think the shot may or may not count?
If the foul is that close to being a shooting foul, don't penalize them for this.
If the foul is so much before the shooting motion that everyone knows it's just a "practice shot," then that's what the player gets for shooting a dead ball. He can take his practice shots after the game is over.
