The phrase I see here that seems definitive to me is "maintains her own vertical space." In my play, when B1 moves her arms backward, she gives up her legal right to that space directly above her own head. B1 can maintain that space, but can't regain it once A1 uses it. Eh?

You're over-thinking this type of play imo.
If you think the defender initiated the contact, call the foul on him/her.
If you think the shooter is initiating the contact, then it's a PC foul or no-call.
If you don't think anyone is getting an advantage through the contact, simply let it go.
It's a judgement call- always. Don't over-analyze it, just call it.
Jmo.

My opinion too - just call it.
I look at it this way: if the defender swats and the ball is not blocked it's a foul. If you no-call these then you'll have players on both ends swatting at everything.
