I did read the comment, it's just that I didn't quite understand it.

I really don't see any difference between seeing it "while" and seeing it "immediately after" (emphasis mine). I do, however, see your point under the semantics of the rules.

What confuses me most is the part "The rules do not permit the referee to make allowance for normal reaction time of the timer which results in a "lag" in stopping the clock. By interpretation, 'lag or reaction' time is limited to one second when the official's signal is heard or seen clearly."
