And at the very least the contact was minimal and insignificant. If the player was cleared out by the defender, then they would not have fallen with their feet in the same place. They would have been thrown out of the way.

Pause it and really watch it this time.
The screener re-set her screen as #40 took a step, she was mid step at the point of contact.
As I've said many times, this contact doesn't deserve a foul either way, but if one is going to be called it has to be on the screener, who did not give time or distance.
