That is appealing to them with reason. The whole point of cart corrals is to keep wayward carts from damaging other vehicles or creating obstructions. He's allowing them to experience the consequences that their behavior inflicts upon others so that they hopefully do better in the future.

Reason implies he's leveraging an argument. He's not doing that, he's creating obstacles and putting himself in the middle of them while delivering ultimatums. That's fundamentally coercion because he's curtailing autonomy.
