Wrong again, as the neutral zone does not exist then.

Doesn't it exist as soon as the ball is ready for play?

Yes it does. But you asked whether it was encroachment while a player was setting the ball on the tee. And at that time the ball is NOT ready for play, and the NZ does not exist.

How do you know the ball isn't ready for play? The ball being on the tee has nothing to do with it being ready for play.
