I agree, but not unless she can make him see her point by an argument that convinced him (without blackmailing him). He got to be who he is for a reason, and if he is opposed to burning his soul out at status signaling events she should find a different senior tech executive.

"it would make me really happy and cost you nothing of value" is a good reason :/

I think these are good reasons, unless it makes him more unhappy than it makes her happy. She may not want to be his arm candy at a LAN party either, and that may be fine too. If they both look at and listen to each other they will figure out the right solution.
