Alternatively, if Okabe's goal was to open Moeka's eyes, he could've done it without physically beating her in the face.
1. No matter how he knocked her out, I'm quite certain that you and other people would've found the action morally lacking due to the gender issue. And trying to knock her out would've led to a struggle anyways and possibly ended in Okabe punching her after all.

2. I'm tired of repeating this too: reason does not reach one who is in delirium. By the sound of your posts, you would prefer if he had simply talked to her, but as Gohan78 pointed out, it's as good as talking to someone who'se unconscious.
