The restrictive side of the argument says that /someone/ fired the
torpedo and set its goal intentionally, and it is the firer's
perspective that is generating the *-lI'.* Do you disagree with this
argument?

This does confirm that the thing does not itself have the
intention to do what it does, a torpedoe does not "think" or
"intend" to do what it does. The speaker does also not "intend"
what is happening. He is neutral as describing what is going on:
{chollI' peng} is to me the same as {pumlI' nagh}.
