If we're going to follow this glass metaphor, shattering the image he has of her only makes her more accessible. It removes the wall between them. The fact that throwing the rock damages her somewhat is what facilitates her becoming acessible. I'm not saying this is "right"--I'm saying it's where you go if you follow the idea of why Seymour "sees more glass"... >> Thank you -Noah
