FMJ is a military round designed by anti war humanitarians, and that alone should be a clue it's not a valid point of view from a technological standpoint. It's also subject to the law of unintended consequences, which is shown to be the introduction of mechanisms and techniques to cause multiple wounds
.

Interesting. I was under the impression that FMJ bullet wounds were lengthier and more expensive to treat, hence, a 2-fold return of removing soldiers from the battle field while costing the opposing force more money to treat their wounded (as opposed to a funeral), depleting 2 resources at the same time.

In fact, I have heard this theory explained many, many times.
