No. Please don't. There is a very, very good reason why the rule is written as it is. It has been pointed out in the forums (particularly by Sean Lavery, who was the first I read pointing it out). That reason is that if the rule is changed, teams will be able to knock balls off the overpass after crossing into the next quadrant. In my opinion, that is enough of a reason to keep G22 as it is.
