Geez, I don't know, but while in Europe, there were a whole lot of mess of screen tactics. Then I also observe a lot of screen tactics by a lot of competitive B/BB level players. I usually see three people bunched up next to the net looking like they're gonna block or have their arms extended to their sides. Sometimes they move on the serve contact, a lot of times it's after the served ball crosses the plane of the net. What I've observed is that sometimes the ball is served directly over these frontal formation.
For the most part, a receiving player can move and position themselve out of the screen. Unless the trajectory of the ball is that low and flat above the screen, then most players could still see the ball in midair.
It's pretty rare to actually see a screen violation on a serve, but when one occurs, it should be noted that screening tactics may have been used.
