When NAP plays Zenith Blade in response to AP moving to an open battlefield, does NAP score a point for gaining the battlefield and then another point at start of their next turn for holding it?

Answer
Ruling: Yes, NAP scores a point for conquering the battlefield (subject to normal conquer limitations) and will score another point at the start of their next turn for holding it.
Sequence:
- AP moves to an open battlefield and applies contested status
- AP passes priority without starting a chain
- NAP plays Zenith Blade, applying stunned status to the attacker and moving a unit to become the defender
- If the stunned attacker cannot kill the defender, it is moved back to base during cleanup
- NAP scores a point for conquering (if eligible)
- At the start of NAP's next turn, they score for holding the battlefield
Nuances:
- NAP does not score if they already controlled the battlefield before combat started
- NAP does not score if they already scored that battlefield this turn
- Scoring this way counts as a conquer, so it has all conquer limitations and triggers
- NAP cannot win the final point this way unless they've scored all battlefields
- There is no final point limitation on holding, only on conquering
