However, you are skipping over 15.2.1...
The interpretation I have been discussing comes from 15.2.1:
"15.2.1 Player Contact with Net or Antennas
Contact with the net by a player is not a fault, unless it is made during an
action of playing the ball, or it interferes with the play."...
"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."
When the player moves into the path of the ball contacting the body of the net and the ball causes the net to contact the player who moved to that position, she is guilty of interference and is called for the net fault.
