I don't either. As someone on the Women's side who's had it beaten into his head to blow a whistle on these the only call under 10-1-4 would be the arm bar. For an "automatic" foul due to an arm bar it has to be extended away from the defender's body. B1 doesn't get much of a chance to do that before he's hit by A1's arm (then shoulder, etc.).
