That would fall under "blackmail, telepathy etc". The point is for the hero to do it because he's had enough, not because he has no other choice.
How is that different to doing depraved things to Ma & Pa Kent in the hopes of pushing Superman over the edge?

Lets say for the sake of the argument that Supes has been captured and restrained. He's forced to watch some villain beat/rape/torture ma and pa Kent non-stop for several weeks, then the same villain kills them. After he's done with them he murders Lois and forcefeeds Clark her eyeballs and brains. Then frees Clark from the restrains. You think Supes is just gonna rush him to jail?
...What goes through your mind? 😑
