Disagree, the exception refers to touching the ball or any part of the basket while the ball is on or within either basket; or touching the ball while any part of the ball is within the imaginary cylinder, it doesn't only refer to dunking.

The phrase "dunking or stuffing is legal and is not basket interference" was probably added in 1976 when the NFHS added a rule change allowed dunking during the game but not during pregame warmups, nor during intermissions, and with a later rule change in 1978 outlawing dunking a dead ball. Previous to this dunking was not allowed at all (the “(Lew) Alcindor Rule”).
