As per my previous remarks, I think it would be highly unlikely to succeed, but it opens the door to that type of argument. That is why the reasonableness test is built in to the third category of conduct, which tries to identify and target more subtle forms of coercive conduct that aren't necessary criminal offences in and of themselves. That's why you have the objective reasonable test there to help the court and other criminal justice practitioners identify what types of conduct could amount to conduct that would reasonably be expected to cause the intimate partner to believe their safety is threatened.
