Its stressful, chaotic and basically a mess.

Even a well prepared and executed plan does not guarantee survival. A poorly executed plan or lack of preparation does not guarantee failure because, as you note, these things are basically a mess.
HOWEVER if one is going to bother to prepare to to defend ones self these type of scenarios are worth discussing. There was a lot that went wrong here. There was some that went right as well (simply being armed and prepared to shoot for instance). But there is a reason incident reports study what went wrong and what went right. As, hopefully, none of us will ever be involved in an incident and almost surely we will not be involved in enough to become subject matter experts through experience discussion is vital. In fact these types of discussions are likely a major part of any scenarios considered or practiced in training.
