She also said to Yang that she would be pretty much out of her life and not be kind if she didn't choose her. Not to mention, considering the little amount of info she gave to Yang, there was no way Yang would choose her. If Raven was in Yang's position, she probably would have walked away too She didn't say that until after Yang had made her choice. That was not presented as a condition for the choice that Yang would make. It was a statement afterward.

Meanwhile, Ozpin presented Pyrrha with the ultimatum of "Let us do this highly experimental procedure to transfer Amber's soul into you or risk a very bad person getting their hands on the remainder of this incredibly powerful magic."

But to be fair, the decisions that he presents to people involve stopping bad people from doing things that threaten mankind, so it's hard not to present that choice as an ultimatum.
