"But using the sights requires that one be able to at once, align all of the following:
1. Their eyeball(s).
2. Both front and rear sight.
3. An exact area on whatever they are shooting at."
That's a negative, Ghostrider... I believe the words I used were "sight picture" and "aimed fire." Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, but those are not the same thing as the deliberate, 4-point sight picture.
My point is that there should be some frame of sight picture reference beyond about 6 feet.
I'm sure you are aware that when your target is 10 feet away you need only have a bearing on your front sight. That is a sight picture.
A brief fixation on the target's center mass, a push of the front sight into alignment with it, and successive squeezes of the trigger until you get the "he's down" stimulus.
Front sight, front sight, front sight.... and when the target is beyond about 25 feet, you can do the whole shebang, considering center mass, sights and eyeballs... with depth of focus still on the front sight.
I believe that beyond about 6 feet, the gun should be extended... and that, with extension, the front sight should guide your rounds. I can do this with greater speed and accuracy than any non-sighted method. I honestly believe that this technique mitigates all of our disadvantages, as opposed to just firing like your trickster bullets are going to home-in on their target in any given dynamic, fluid, unpredictable, crazy situation.
But, like I said... we only need prove anything to ourselves.
