  I decide to stop them from communicating, so I transmit "<callsign 1> QRT DE <callsign 2>"

On amateur radio, you're obliged to identify yourself, so this would be a breach of licence: failing to identify your station, or misrepresenting your station.

True. But let's say that didn't apply. Would this be harmful interference?
