Does the scenario you provided even measure emotional intelligence? I feel like it measires confidence and willingness to confront someone, neither of which feel particularly related to emotional intelligence.

I wasn't suggesting that particular example was for emotional intelligence; it was just an example of a kind of problem solving that isn't covered under IQ. It was a segue into the adjacent topic of emotional intelligence.
