Well I see players lining up on the snapper all the time. If they try to go through the line, they go through the A gap and pretty much go around the snapper. Nothing in the rule says they cannot hit the snapper, they just have to give an opportunity for them to defend themselves, but going through the gap does not violate the spirit of the rule.
