Taking the POE literally, that's an automatic intentional foul, which is ludicrous.

Agree totally.

Why else would any defender foul a screener except to stop the clock?

disagree totally with this line of thinking. As I posted earlier: - B3 may push or run through a screen set by A4. Or B2 may be guarding A2 who makes a sudden cut to get open for the pass and B2 may instinctly clutch or reach out for A2. Those would be common fouls in my eyes unless B3's contact was severe or B2 grabbed A2's jersey.
