My understanding is that the Lead can come across the lane to officiate the post, but that the T and C do not complete the rotation; the L is expected to go back to the side of the lane where he/she started. Is that incorrect?

In NCAA_M ( I believe there is no lock down) so a last second rotation can affect who has last second shot responsibilities.

This is false. The official opposite the table has the last shot. So if the C is opposite the table, he has the last shot. If we have a rotation, he is now Trail, but is still opposite the table and so he still has the last shot. The rotation does not affect last-shot responsibility at all.

as could a last second transition because the the T and the L swap duties so the clock responsibilities either stay with the C or are exchanged by the new L and new T.

This is true. In a quick transition, or steal-and-heave situation, the last shot responsibility will change if two officials are opposite the table. The new Trail will have the last shot in those situations. But since we all know that, it's not really ever a problem that I've ever heard of.
