Only think I hate about the resolution of the problem is that the offense was not hurrying to score because they saw the clock and thought they had 30-something seconds to shoot - to suddenly say, NO, you have 2 seconds (or worse, if they had caught it 2 seconds later - NO, you lose the ball) would suck - especially in the situation when this happened.

Which is why I don't want shot clocks in HS. Here in the OP we had a problem which really was a legitimate error by the operator. Now take that to the high school level where these type of mistakes would be very prevalent. You would see a whole bunch of erroneous resets on plays where there shouldn't be really any confusion.
