I don’t think this carves reality at the joints. Not only are border cases hard to tell apart in many societies most of the instances cluster around where we would deem border cases.
Arranged marriages, like work, often involve driving external factors that don’t amount to ‘coercion’. Forced marriages, like slavery, always involve coercion. (The definition of coercion is the border dispute here). Do you concur? Or is there a continuum of marriage where “It sure would be nice to have grandkids someday” is only a matter of degree different from “If you refuse you will be stoned to death” or even “You have married this person.”
More realistic than reality? All four of those are things which currently happen. If there is a continuum, they are all on it.
I would put ‘You will not gain a legal right to the property which I currently have the legal rights to.’ on the arranged side rather than the forced side. Where would you put it, assuming a qualitative difference between the two (or more) categories?

What about a more realistic scenario: if you refuse, you’ll be disinherited?
