I'm a bit confused on what you are trying to imply about the mechanics of aura. My big question is: can aura resist pressure, or does it only shield the user? I did some more research and realized how dumb I am about aura shields. I mean, we saw Ren using a shielding ability on a two headed snake that I think either resisted pressure, or kept the fangs from piercing his hands. Probably both. If a user had enough control over their own aura, I suppose that a shield could be wrapped around the neck to prevent a chokehold, but it seems a bit unorthadox and seems difficult, as I cannot recall if there are others who use shields other than Ren, Ozpin, and perhaps Jaune.
