Note also that “regions” aren’t actually full children of sessions. If you set up a bunch of regions in a session in one terminal, and then attach to that same session in a different terminal, the only evidence of the regions will be the odd sizes of some of the windows. So you can have the same screen session attached from different places with different region layouts simultaneously.

After rereading the info(gnu-screen) manual, which indeed clarifies that

'Ctrl-a S' will generate a blank window.

confusing. Good thing is the structure
