Not saying you're wrong, but why does 4-35-7...the very last bit mention:
"This restriction shall not prohibit a defender, located within the restricted area, from attempting to block a shot."
To me, the RA has always been about secondary defenders trying to get into position to draw a charge on an opponent. A defender who jumps verticality is not setting up to draw a charge, but playing active defense, and thus the RA shouldn't apply.
