I know by rule, elbow to head contact warrants more than common foul, but this was a bit much to elevate call - I thought.

Normal offensive movement does not mean you cannot foul. They handled it smoothly and correctly. The rule is pretty clear and nowhere does it say, "this rule does not apply if a defender puts her head in the way."
