Flip-up barrels are in .380, .32 ACP, .25, and .22. They are great for older people with arthritis, who have a hard time working a slide. These people have defensive needs too, arguably more than we do.
The rotating barrel of the Cougar series helps with recoil, and supposedly helps with consistant accuracy. The barrel rotates, but doesn't change its linear position, so accuracy is consistant.
