What I'm arguing for is semantics, I don't think 'Mace Windu used Force Crush on Grievous', but that 'he used the force to crush Grievous'. The first one sounds like video game logic, while the second one sounds more coherent.
Does Electric Judgement, a lightning power used by Jedi like Plo Koon, not count as a dark side power then? It's considered very controversial by the Jedi and its association with anger.
