I thought the 'gospel' explanation for Avon's words to the Cally alien was simply that the alien had absorbed part of Cally's
consciousness/character,
and Avon was therefore trying to push it towards an action that Cally
would
resist because of feelings (of whatever nature) for Avon. That is, that Avon was bluffing.
IMO, it's in there to explain why Avon and Servalan never really hit it off--i.e., Servalan quite clearly bottles out when confronted with a direct threat, whereas Avon is at least willing to take the risk.
