It was always my understanding that the reason that roof pieces
have a lip (i.e. the small vertical edge before the slope starts)
was to provide a standard way, independent of slope angle, to keep
the interior side of the slope from "crashing into" the studs any
of the pieces that fasten to the bottom of the roof piece.
Given this, it should be possible to produce this piece (1x2 low slope
peak) or any other low slope analogs of regular sloped pieces.

It is possible.
