If you wait until you have to shoot before you pull your gun you are in serious danger of being behind the proverbial curve.

There are a great many instances where pulling a gun might be justified while pulling the trigger at that moment would not.
Well said. From just 10 feet someone can make contact with you before you can clear your holster. Not at all hard to be surprised by someone while debating pulling your weapon.

At the same time their behavior may have warranted a draw by entering your space in a way that is threatening or alarming, but not enough to fire.

Knowing the difference can save your life or your freedom.
