That happens because screeshooter overlays a "window" on top of the screen for you to select the area, this window is transparent so picom blurs it.

In oreder to fix it just add the following rule to your picom config, under blur-background-exclude : "class_g = 'Xfce4-screenshooter'",

You've fixed this for me. Thank you kindly! Closing this non-issue now.
