I actually really like this idea. I've definitely tried to throw people into artifacts before, and this kind of functionality seems so obviously fundamental that it took me a few tries to realize it was by design. The only way I can see this working, though, is if you need a strong grab to do it.

im up for this with the uh... added caveat of maybe borger artifacts not always being an instakill, like having a chance to just replace a few limbs instead? idk, im just not a fan of the idea of instakills being possible with a hard grab is the thing

Good for when people are unconscious next to/near a touch healing artifact and others can't help them reach it.

Bumping this again, as this would really open up a whole new element to artifact usage. Think about all those screaming monkeys.
..& Yes, it should use aggressive grab.

passive: stimulus without activating
active/reinforced: as if they touched it
fun thing you can do with this: smack a dumbass who refuses to stop running away against a healer artifact. they get healed. technology is incredible
