I once worked a playoff game where the R did just this. B was trailing by 3 points. A was just held short of a first down. We set the ball with about 30 seconds left in the game. The R held his whistle until the clock was under 25 seconds and then told A that they didn't need a to snap the ball.
His reasoning was he wanted to 'prevent any problems'. What he prevented was a chance at a miracle win by B.
