Have you ever practiced with one? I'm just asking. I had the same exact attitude before I started with the red dots. I always go for the sights on the first shot and pick up the dot instantly. I understand some people don't even have iron sights on their pistols with the red dots and I don't get that.I never trust self defense to something with circuits and batteries. I also don't want something that needs to be "activated". Or spend (waste) time looking for a dot I may, or may not find.
At the short distance of self defence encounters, I don't want to be fiddling with devices, and looking for dots while my attacker s stabber ng, cutting, kicking, punching, or pulling a trigger.
I have a red dot on my 22 without irons and it is always difficult to acquire the dot initially.
