+1. I like how you pointed out that the screen WAS in the visual field of the defender (contrary to some previous opinions). The fact that the defender chose to focus on something else in his visual field (the ball handler) does not make the screen blind.
Big fat no call here. Maybe even a push on the defender if the screener had been significantly displaced, but I'd try not to go there unless I had to.
Easy kind of call to get surprised by. These are the type that are really good to look at once in a while. You just might see it in your next game.
