Domination varies by domain, range, and intensity rather than being total

Evidence

The main thing to notice about this clause is that it mentions certain choices, not all choices. This highlights the fact that someone may dominate another in a certain domain of choice, in a certain sphere or aspect or period of their life, without doing so in all. The husband may dominate the wife in the home, the employer dominate the employee in the workplace, while that domination does not extend further—not, at least, with the same level of intensity. … We saw in the discussion of the second clause that domination may be more or less intense: a dominating agent may be able to interfere on a more or less arbitrary basis, with greater or lesser ease, and in a more or less severe measure. We see here that domination may also involve a greater or lesser range; it may vary in extent as well as in intensity. — Philip Pettit, Republicanism, 304
