When you shoot your blank round to scare the BG how will you handle the potential, momentary flash blindness that could occur if this were a night home invasion? You've sacrificed your night vision (at least for a few seconds) without delivering any defensive hit to the invader. That second shot might not be as fast, accurate or easy as you envision.
U.F.O.
