I never seen a shotgun snap used to spike the ball in the NFL or NCAA.

Good point. And I haven't seen one either at the college level executed from the shotgun/pistol formation. Seems like a non-issue.
I guess the part that could get complicated (mainly for NF offiicals), what if the shotgun snap is not completed cleanly? Do you still allow them to spike the ball if they had to chase the ball or if the fumble the snap?
