Fumbled snaps should be charged to the center. Or like baseball, who fumbled should be the official scorer's judgment. He could rule the center botched it, the QB bobbled it, or his guard stepped on his foot.
Under current scoring rules, the quarterback always tallies the fumble, and that is not always fair. If only for informational value, knowing whether the fumble happened on the snap or during play has value; crediting bad snaps to linemen adds a dimension of information.
Plus, there are not enough stats for linemen, and it would be entertaining to know which center has the best and worst snap percentage.
