I interpret this to mean that ALL of the ball must over the in-bounds area of the court, for it to be legally touched by a defender.

Don't read it that way. That is a "case" of what could be legal. It doesn't intend to say the entire ball must be over the line.
The defender can't reach through the line, that's it. If they hit/touch the ball without doing so, it is legal.
