And, yes, it's a little convoluted given the specific example given. But, the point is accurate.

But intent of the back row player doesn't matter. Only ball position relative to the height of the net and player position relative to the attack line matter. If a back row player didn't mean to attack but she attacked according to the rules then it is still an attack.
