It's like a spare tire....useless until you need it.
Think it is human nature to pull the trigger again (in the case of triggers that don't reset, still tend to TRY to pull them a scond time). Not unlike a light switch that fails to turn on a light...will flip it again even though on some level we know the light is burned out.
Would be like that with a non-resetting trigger...we'd KNOW we should stroke the slide, but doubt we could over ride the urge to pull the trigger again..then we'd decide to go for the slide and eject the offending round.
In the case of a "real" dud round, would be the loss of about 1/8th second on the second pull and the message getting to your hand to move on to plan "B".
Glock shooters are not immune...even though teh trigger won't reset and allow a seond "click" can watch them strok that non-responding trigger a second time when a dummy round comes up in training.
