<R19> as modified by update 2 does not read that you cannot intentionally affect balls above the bumper zone while not possessing them.

<G45> always restricted this behavior using an active mechanism, which has now had its definition clarified.

<R19-B> as modified requires that balls only extend a maximum of 3" inside of any (passive) MECHANISM or feature above the BUMPER ZONE that directs the balls in a controlled manner.

In my opinion (which of course doesn't mean anything), the ball does not extend inside the sloped feature you've shown at all so that would be legal. A little bit more clarification though Q&A is probably necessary for this rule.
