Well, obviously that is just silly.  It is language on holiday caused by a gap created through inconsistent wording in a system that loves its keywords.Back to the discussion at hand - Flipping through there are a number of non-attack powers that make me crane my head like a confused doggy when I think they are intended to provoke.The Ranger uses Evade Ambush so his allies aren't surprised...and provokes.The Warlock uses Fey Switch, a move action teleport, but it is a ranged 10 power and ranged powers provoke even though teleports do not.  A Warlord uses Knight's Move to give the target a move action as a free action...and provokes.  Later on he uses Crescendo of Violence to give an ally temporary hit points after they land a critical...and provokes.  He gives someone a saving through with Shake it Off...and provokes.Man, Warlords provoke constantly.</blockquote>
