Thanks gentlemen!
KWH brought up a good point. Under PSK the rule book says something like this: "during a scrimmage kick", not "during a scrimmage kick down".
Coach has a good point that I agree with: it would be much easier to enforce PSK if PSK rules applied from the start of the down to when the kick ends. Also, this interpretation fits in with the theory of loose ball plays and fouls during the loose ball period. Like for example, if A64 holds as QB A12 drops back to pass but before the pass is thrown. The loose ball play includes A12's run before the pass.
Both of you have good points. I realize that further research is necessary.
