Maybe it’s because I’m not as hung up on grammar as you are, but to me ‘physical illusion’ describes was she does pretty well. She makes a fake image that has a physicality to it, like a tv screen. Her aura is the screen, the picture is what she wants to it be, and she can bend it around herself to create clothes and stuff, or she can just make a wall in front of her. Just like a tv screen, it shatters when punched.

Or she cant, she just creates an image wall in front of her that allows her to run away and seem like she teleported. Because Monty has admitted in a commentary that initially he was going to animate Neo and Roman running away from RWBY after the Paladin fight, but then realised how much work that would be and decided not to.
