There was slight contact in the play I'm thinking of, but it was neither advantageous nor disadvantageous to either player.

It sounds like a no-call to me, but intent has nothing to do with it. If B1 was not disadvantaged nor displaced in any way, play on.

If this is true, no matter what else did or didn't happen, no foul.
