True. "Blocked kick" is a defined term in Canadian football, but not USAn, but AFAIK it's not used in USAn rules anyway. (Like the way "charged down" was not defined for a very long time in Rugby Union.) I think, however, we understood the situation described to be one where the kicked ball is rising or level and where team R can react to it only rapidly and not have a chance to catch it, so that will almost always happen in or on team K's side of the neutral zone, expanded.
