I don't know why a player would have their foot in the air completely on the opponent's side and make contact with the ball but this contact is a violation and should be called, regardless of intent or interference. I don't see it as that tough of a "sell" at all.

You've quoted the rule for which we are determining reaching over the net. Are you advocating using that signal for something under the net?
