There's a balance, yes maybe there should have been a clearer discussion between MC and Violet about where the line is and maybe he should have been there for that particular event (which is why CircleGames turned it down a bit in the Silver release) but also if you really want literally every new step in the NTS to be preceded by an obligatory "yes we both agree to this" dialogue that's gonna get boring fast.
It's not NTR because Violet going further has been discussed and approved by the MC at several points.

I remember a discussion regarding stories in video games (normal ones I mean). A very progressive person was arging that we need a trigger warning just before a scene happens if it contains anything that could upset the player, like a suicide scene (even if there were already warnings on the game's jacket). The other one, who I happen to agree with, argued that it killed the impact of any scene with shocking content for everyone else, as you're basically spoiled before anything happens.
I see some parallels between that and the problem you guys are talking about, which is in short is the fact if the characters need to discuss every single thing just before it happens (even if they already reached an understanding prior to that), there won't be much surprise or excitement. Several nts games tend (or tended idk) to be overly safe so that it never feels ntr-ish in any way and at any point, to avoid upsetting a large part of their public. But I also think that collaterally, it has a negative impact on the story for the reason mentioned above. That being said, I understand it's also a matter of taste.
