Maybe, but in my career, I've worked only one game with a shot clock (JV college women's game), and the rest of them I've only had a half dozen games that involved any prolonged stall tactic. Most of them imploded, and none of them lasted more than a couple of minutes.

It seems to me the number of games in which this takes place is so small that it's not really a problem. IOW, it's a solution in search of a problem.
