I think that's the offensive screening player who encourage rude play, more than rules. Screening when your team has possession of the ball is for me a bad kind of play, that "anti-jeu", and I think that a player who make this kind of move need to be ready to get check.
For the forearms, maybe you are right, not mention it in the rule can be a good thing. For me an hard shoulder on shoulder check is more dangerous than a push with forearms. All this is about the degrees of playing. Hit a mallet with my mallet is fine, hit it realy high and make it explode in 2 parts isn't, both are like contacts, but one should be banned.
Using forarms for hit someone, make loosing his bike control by moving his handlbar isn't good.
