If someone pulls a gun on you, it's still an act of violence even if they missed you with every shot. An act of violence, whether by action or threat of action, should be prosecuted as such. We don't need arbitrary rules (aka statutes) to know that violence is wrong. Nobody should be allowed to make rules that impose duties on others.

I completely agree with you! I think OP's mistaken in claiming measurable harm needs to have been done to the victim. Attempting harm to a victim should be enough.
