Your inference here is both contrary to rule and common sense. You seem to be saying that a particular ball could be foul, yet if you take that same ball and lift it an inch it's fair. Sorry - that dog don't hunt.

And yes, I have seen a ball come completely to rest while touching only foul ground - and still be fair by rule.
