Should the NBA change shot clock violation rules(explained)?

When the defense hold the offense to a violation and a loose ball situation occurs, with the defense clearly about to, or having possession, should refs not blow the whistle and allow for transition offense?
I feel like allowing the team who committed the violation to set in it's defense in a dead ball situation is too advantageous to them.

They don't blow the whistle if the defense has possession of the ball. If there is any question whose ball it will be, then the play stops.
I think this rule is handled well.

No. I like the hard rule here. Your suggestion would essentially give the refs a judgement call. Yes it could help the team taking the ball. But it could also help the team losing the ball if they manage to get it back if it is a loose ball situation. The rule now guarantees the other team gets the ball and I think that's the best way to do it.
Also in a burn clock situation, the team with the ball may be able to pass it into the other team's leg or body and recover the ball and get a new shot clock, which would make running clock much easier
