Which is exactly my point......

The current NFHS intentional foul language also states "A foul shall also be ruled intentional if while playing the ball a player causes excessive contact with an opponent".

The current language in R4-19-3 already covers all of the same situations that people want to add new language to cover, including your example above. Instead of saying the exact same thing in a different way, just use what we've already got.
