If not asked I don't explain anything. If asked a quick "you can't move her off that spot" or something similar is usally all I will give them. I have found that quick comments like that work better than "you can't displace her from a position that she has obtained legally on the floor" - that just gets them to look at you funny.

"you displaced her" or "you moved her from her path" and only if asked. I'm with you "Slow".
