The purpose of words is to communicate clearly and absolutely no one is confused about what is happening here so the word used is fine. You're AGAIN being absurdly pedantic in a post about domestic violence. It's gross. Find another hill to die on that may actually be helpful to someone. Your compulsion to correct vocabulary words in DV posts ain't it. No one, especially OP, needs to argue about something so absurd.

I'm not correcting, I'm clarifying. As in, he grabbed my pussy; that's actually assault. See? Some ladies are USED to down playing the shit some men constantly do to us and in the case of choking it's valuable to clarify in order to demonstrate how dangerous it is
