Per item 3:
"player under center is permitted to stop the game clock
legally to save time"
If the clock isn't running AT THE SNAP, then therefore the player is not legally stopping the clock to save time; e.g. intentional grounding is the correct call.
Since the clock was not running AT THE THE SNAP, therefore it is impossible to have a spike to stop a clock that is already stopped.
That's just logic.
