Arent they all?

This is where it's going to be problematic: defense false starts before the clock, offense snaps because defense is offsides, now who is guilty of an infraction? The defense that jumped or the offense that snapped in response? Both?

Unless they're very careful in how this is worked out written, it seems to me this could be used strategically by defenses to eliminate defensive false start penalties by intentionally false starting and provoking the offense to snap before they're allowed to, eventually offenses will be slow at snapping the ball in response and defenses will pretty much false start at will. It potentially turns a false start by the defense into a penalty on the offense.
