The benefit of winding the clock in when it should be wound in is that you don't need to have a timer who is versed in the timing rules.
In my neck of the woods, we get volunteer timers (old coaches, some parents, etc) and we do a 2-minnute pre-game with them. We show them the stop the clock signal and the start the clock signal. If they follow those signals, everything will be fine.
If a play should start on the snap, then without a signal, the timer must know that the clock goes with the snap, and therefore, that requires more knowledge than just following instructions. I bet there is some degree of training, availability, etc... that might not always be present.
