Does anybody else have a hard time seeing how the laconic description does its job here?

I read it twice before reading the article, then I read it again after the article and it really doesn't come even close to being a good "laconic" description. Can I rewrite it?

If I don't get a reply in 10 days I'm just gonna rewrite it because it is seriously terrible at doing its job.

Laconics are frequently bad. Might want to ask here about it.

So suppose there's this one character who is, to be frank, a Non-Action Guy. He's also a Nice Guy...and an Extreme Doormat. So when the bad guy is in a position where this character can kill them, and the former taunts the latter for "not having it in him" to kill them, the character...agrees. And leaves the bad guy to a Fate Worse than Death.

So...would that count as this trope? Or just Beware the Nice Ones?
