Also, they require a better sight picture than buck shot.
Not so much... That is a misconception that is not great in super short distances such as HD.

Your POA and intended POI needs to be the same 1 inch for slugs as for 00 buck. The spread will be from zero to 1.5-2 inch in the average room of the average home... The wad will likely be in the entrance wound.

For deer hunting range, you can have an intended 3-4 inch planned POI with 00 and still hit vitals for a quick kill.
