There is nothing that says a screen has to a fine wire mesh that you put
over your windows to keep our the bugs. The whiles in a screen can be
several inches in diameter and it is still screen. They use screens with
with openings a foot or more across in quarries to sort gravel by size.
They have huge openings, but they are still screens.
