You have added the middle but yourself to try and change the actual law. I already included the wording which categorically says it's not a penalty.
I'll ask you do you think the penalty against Micah Richards was fair?
I added the line for clarification, all I've done is put the new laws in the order which makes them more logical and easier to understand, taken from uefa website...
• Deliberate handball remains an offence
• The following ‘handball’ situations,
even if accidental, will be a free kick:
• the ball goes into the goal after touching an attacking player’s hand/arm
• a player gains control/possession of the ball after it has touches their hand/arm and then scores, or creates a goal-scoring opportunity
•
the ball touches a player’s hand/arm which has made their body unnaturally bigger
• the ball touches a player’s hand/arm when it is above their shoulder (unless the player has deliberately played the ball which then touches their hand/arm)
• The following will not usually be a free kick,
unless they are one of the above situations:
•
the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/near
• the ball touches a player’s hand/arm which is close to their body and has not made their body unnaturally bigger
•if a player is falling and the ball touches their hand/arm when it is between their body and the ground to support the body (but not extended to make the body bigger)
•If the goalkeeper attempts to ‘clear’ (release into play) a throw-in or deliberate kick from a team-mate but the ‘clearance’ fails, the goalkeeper can then handle the ball
Explanation
Greater clarity is needed for handball, especially on those occasions when ‘nondeliberate’ handball is an offence. The re-wording follows a number of principles:
• football does not accept a goal being scored by a hand/arm (even if accidental)
• football expects a player to be penalised for handball if they gain possession/control of the ball from their hand/arm and gain a major advantage e.g. score or create a goal-scoring opportunity
•it is natural for a player to put their arm between their body and the ground for support when falling.
•
having the hand/arm above shoulder height is rarely a ‘natural’ position and a player is ‘taking a risk’ by having the hand/arm in that position, including when sliding
•if the ball comes off the player’s body, or off another player (of either team) who is close by, onto the hands/arms it is often impossible to avoid contact with the ball
• When the GK clearly kicks or tries to kick the ball into play, this shows no intention to handle the ball so, if the ‘clearance’ attempt is unsuccessful, the goalkeeper can then handle the ball without committing an offence
No added line and my point still stands (I've even added their explanation which explicitly uses this as an example for why there was a need for the rule change)

Richards example isn't relevant due to the new law changes but I'll ask you "is the only difference between the penalty you conceded today and the one which we had overruled today, that the ball came of a players body part before hitting the defender's outstretched arm?"
....because if that's the case, the new laws specifically states that the "outstretching of the arm" supersedes the "coming off your own body part"
You say you're a ref?
PS - just re-read your original post and highlighted the VERY IMPORTANT point that you seem to have misunderstood
