Yes, the boundaries are fuzzy; that's typical in law. The "reasonable person" language is not my invention, and it's assumed that somewhere along the line someone is going to have to fight in court over the particulars of ambiguous cases. The ambiguity is a strength - it forces compliance with the spirit of the wording, instead of risking litigation by trying to find a technical loophole.
