I always practice to see my front sight when I shoot (short of retention shooting) and I've never had a problem point shooting when necessary.

To my mind, the only difference between point shooting and sighted shooting is how you index the gun to the target; by muscle memory or by sights? If you practice using sights, you are also building muscle memory. If you practice using only muscle memory, you are not building your sighted fire skill.

On a related note, the old school WWII style point shooting encourages a number of bad habits in my sighted fire, including bowling the draw and overswing.
