Still curious about an explanation as to why an official would put time back on a clock that "properly stopped".

If it was it was a rare 00:00:00 with no horn situation, the period isn't over, the ten players still have to finish the period, and it's not necessary (nor legal) to add time to the clock (assuming said clock properly stopped).

Now, if the clock was improperly stopped (timekeeper was asleep at the switch), only then, with definite knowledge (of many types, however it can't be an illegal back tracked post event estimated count), can officials put time back on the clock.
