It doesn't help unless it changes the wording of 15.2.1.1:

If the ball is driven into the net with such force that it causes the net or antenna to contact a player, no fault is committed.

I'm sorry to repeat myself, but there is NO mention of how the body part got "in the way" of the ball. It simply doesn't matter -- BY RULE -- whether the player moved the hand there or it was already there. It's a very simple "If. . .then" statement, and there are no qualifiers.
IF the ball is hit into the net which then contacts an opponent, THEN there is no fault. Period. That's the rule.
I understand you're talking about an interpretation, but the interpretation is in direct conflict with the actual wording of the rule.
