Using a Droid OS I wasn't able to learn as much about the courses as I had anticipated, but what I read about has merit. An assailant can move 15"-18" every 0.1 seconds, add in reaction (Rx) time and engagement distances shrink rapidly creating extreme close distance encounters.There's nothing wrong with your observations -- lots of truth there. Are you familair with SouthNarc, and the things he is teaching? There are videos at the shivworks.com site that speak directly to what you're saying.
And they have a lot to do with this (perhaps poorly chosen ) "Gun Guy" hangup. The idea is, you aren't going to get a clean draw, plenty of space to work, and a target standing a few yards away as though he's made of carboard!
Take a look at what exactly is being taught and share your thoughts.
Back in the day of Bill Jordan holsters and style of firearm presentation, once the muzzle cleared the holster our wrists rotated until we were on target and fired.
A problem with post class defensive training as I see it is partnering up with another person to keep one's skills honed.
