True; people tend to want to control all the variables they can control in a high-risk situation.
This struck me as a good discussion because it makes me rethink how I evaluate my ammo needs. If I evaluate my ammo needs based on how many rounds are necessary to stop the threat, I will probably come up with a smaller number than if I evaluate my ammo needs based on how many rounds I am likely to shoot before I realize the threat has been stopped.
It also suggests that some common tactics like "shoot until the threat goes away" need to be modified if you are going to carry a pistol with limited onboard ammo and no reload.
