Yep. An incorrect position posted 50 times is no more correct than 10 times.
Show me anywhere that discusses how far over is over. Can't do it can you.
The whole intent is that a player on the ground in one position is not allowed to change positions for a better advantage. From back to side allows them to protect the ball much better since they can effectively cover it up in their belly...or make a better pass. The only actions we have that are allow once they get the ball on the ground is to sit up...but only if they are on their back.
What if the player were on their side? You suggest they could roll to their back. What then? If they're on their back, they could sit up. So, they can go from side to sitting, but only if they first go to their back? If they go directly, it's a travel??? That link of logic would suggest they could go from back to belly as long as they stopped on thier side for a moment.
