Okay, then, wayneInFL, although I didn't specifically identify why I usually pack away a different (from my EDC) firearm, you've nailed it.

I've become aware over the years that, when I leave home for pretty much any reason, I can't always be sure when I'll be returning.

I like to be prepared for those "unusual" situations.

Thanks, all, for the thoughtful responses and I think we would all like to hear more.

Best,

Will
