FWIW, I'm 5'4", over 60, and have Parkinson's and osteoporosis. I've cracked a rib just leaning my chest against a fence. Somebody punching me in the chest could kill me, by breaking my ribs into my heart. I certainly can't fight anybody hand to hand, and I can't run.
For me, any physical force is the same as deadly force.
