Then I guess we should use the term "over the back" considering that we could say that the rule of verticality applies to that terminology in some kind of way.

Actually, Jeff, I do use the words "over the back" when it's appropriate. Here's an example:
Coach: She's over the back! Look she's clear over the back!
Me: Coach, over the back isn't illegal.
Coach: Yes it is. It's in the rulebook!
Me: Show it to me, and then I'll start calling it.
