I view it slightly differently. Like how many times has he said things that 'may' trigger LT but that don't? He may be trying to gently get her out of her comfort zone, from the context of a strong caring relationship, and most times it works - we don't know.

But it seems he's only triggered her 2/3 times (that LT recorded here) and they were, in my view, gently meant as LT has reported them, and they were heard or felt different by her. I see it as giving LT an opportunity to re jig her neurons in the safest of environments.
