I bring this up because I don't know the specifics of how providers are handling comms w/ each other, so I merely cited an instant no-brainer closed-loop situation which also avoids the inevitable delay e.g. email delay/pm delay/vmail delay in a more personalized verification step.

That wasn't the point I was trying to make. Of course safety is important, but that's not the only purpose of screening. Like I said, some ladies screen for compatibility in addition to safety. It's important to actually communicate with the lady being used as a reference beyond a simple "he was fine". If you can provide a link to her current ad, I wouldn't think it would be that much of a stretch to also include her contact information.
