It doesn't have to be hand shaking, or body twitches, but I know that I could more easily accept the fact that I missed if I knew that the game was trying to model the actual physical difficulty of aiming a weapon more.

This sounds like a recipe for total disaster. How many players understand the "physical difficulty of aiming a weapon" well enough to know in the moment of failing and feeling utter frustration wash over you somehow translate that into fun because "oh hey it's like real life no worries?"

Me. Which I guess is why this doesn't bother me. I know some rounds will miss, so I make my decision to get in a shootout or run away based on that, and not the ideal scenario of every round hitting their head.

Yeah but most people don't have the knowledge of firearms you do, surely? We're talking about scrubs from middle class suburbs who think you might be robbing the place.
