However, saying you are justified in shooting someone is not the same as saying you SHOULD be shooting them.

What if your wife came home early?

What if your neighbor stumbled in drunk?
Which is entirely different than shooting someone who is attempting to break down your door.

You wife is unlikely to be attempting to smash her way into her own house or bedroom.

Your neighbor, being sufficiently drunk, MIGHT be banging away at your OUTER door, but your bedroom?

I am not saying there are also not several plausible scenarios where shooting through a door makes perfect sense. My over-arching point is that IN GENERAL, shooting through a door is a bad idea.
That's the same general idea of almost everyone else in this thread also.
