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.
I don't even think that plays into it. I've had plenty of experience with firearms (mainly the M-16, M-9, and AR-15, but I've shot various other handguns, long rifles, and shotguns), and I'd still quit playing if they tried to model that. Adding randomness, twitching, spasms, etc, just because it's "realistic" would be awful. Look at the Last of Us. The shooting in that game sucks, and that game has a pretty good justification for doing the floaty, waving aiming that it does. It doesn't make it good, it makes it frustrating and shitty.
Biggest reason I couldn't stand it. Coming from something like Mass Effect 3, which wasn't perfect of course, Last of Us was nigh unplayable for me.
