The point at which I think about whether the situation should or should not be a T will be the point the ball became dead, not when I finally put air in the whistle.

You have no rules justification for that statement that I'm aware of. The ball is not dead either when you decide a "T" should be called or when you blow your whistle
IF a shot is already in the air. That's NFHS rule 6-7-5 + EXCEPTION a.
If you haven't decided to call the "T" or had not blown your whistle
before the ball left the shooter's hands on the 3-point attempt, you have no rules justication that I know of to then cancel the 3-point basket if it goes. The ball is live until the try is made or missed.
