I mean, there clearly are mechanics, so it might've took the point home by explicitly mentioning a named Technique for it. Or was space so much of an issue that a single-paragraph Technique wasn't an option?
Time to write was so much an issue that making up every conceivable technique wasn't an option.

And I'm not seeing seduction as a single technique, anyway. It's a goal. It's like having a combat technique called "kill people."
