I know what he wrote, regardless of what he meant:

I reject every notion of that post. The notion that somehow "
the answer" is to do something almost nobody can do is not helpful, even if it's used as a selectively-simplistic rationalization for an alternate method of carry (i.e. a pocket revolver).
Having reviewed - at this time - hundreds (maybe more than a thousand) self-defense incidents on video, it doesn't look like anyone is successful in
outdrawing their opponent, especially if that opponent has an already-drawn gun.
I acknowledge the utility of a pocket revolver. It's a smart option. It's just not THE ANSWER, nor is THE ANSWER a 0.5 second draw.
My honest hope is that the OP experienced a typographical ND (lol), and that the suggestion was
1.5, not
0.5.
