Yeah, I know. I just don't think I agree with the thinking (I'm not saying your thinking is wrong, I'm saying I think the rules are wrong). To my mind, if you're hitting the ball with the back of the club, then the back of the club has become the clubface.
If you were then to hit the ball with the concave back of a club, how could you claim that you hadn't double hit it? If memory serves, the reason they banned concave clubfaces in the first place was because it caused a double hit. The flange bit pops the ball up in the air, then the back bit hits it forward.
