sway someone into doing vs sway someone to do

[JACEK1]

Hello.
Does "She was unable to sway him into putting on a thick coat on such a cold wintry day" mean "She was unable to sway him to put on a thick coat on such a cold wintry day"?
What is your opinion?
Thank you.

I find it a very odd way to say that she was unable to persuade him to put on a thick coat. Where did you find it?

[h=2]sway someone to something[/h]to convince someone to do something. I think I can sway her to join our side. We could not sway Ted to our position.

It's used much more commonly when talking about someone's opinion or into making an important decision. It's not really necessary for something as mundane as putting on a coat.
