Then I guess we should use the term "over the back" considering that we could say that the rule of verticality applies to that terminology in some kind of way.

No, we shouldn't. Because there is no infraction for going over someone's back. When ignorant people say "over the back", they think it should be a foul. That's why we don't use the phrase.
However, when you say that there are no moving screens, that is simply false. There are moving screens, as I pointed out above.

The rulebook also says that you have to give the proper time and distance or you have a foul on the screener.

Irrelevant. That is referring to a screen that is set on a player who is NOT moving the same direction as the screener. All you've told us is that
that particular scenario is not a legal moving screen. But that's utterly beside the point.
