In my view, yes, when the party being dominated or abused has massive power itself. This isn't about a small entity being abused by a large entity no matter how much you seem to want it framed as such. It's two incomprehensibly massive and powerful entities going at at with one losing due to its own actions. edit: This is the only view I see that allows the losing entity to learn from the experience and avoid it in the future. Any other view just results in the same thing happening again in the future.

> when the party being dominated or abused has massive power itself The expected "relativistic" cop-out. "Massive" means nothing if your opponent has substantially more. It simply means that no matter how much you want to escalate they can take it a notch higher and you will suffer just a bit more than your opponent. There are examples literally all around you. > This is the only view I see that allows the losing entity to learn from the experience The only way? It is a way best used when everything else has failed, like education. Am I to understand that you learned everything from personal experience? If you truly believe things are only ever learned on your own skin then you understand close to nothing about the world, history, and consequences, not living through almost any of them yourself. Which explains the narrow view.
