Also, it is likely that a PRESUMPTUOUS act includes a spoken declaration "who cares what God supposedly said", probably using a bit more colorful language, or something along those lines.
So I don't think the meaning changed at all, it's that the verse in question is basically saying "he that decides to just arrogantly blow off God as if His Law is irrelevant has reproached God."

Yes, I agree. Our words can relay our actions. The passage in Numbers gives me more understanding on this.
