It's hardly a moot point; it's an unpersuasive or rebuttable point to you and many others. Not the same thing at all.

In much the same way, i have yet to be persuaded that, had others at Va Tech or Columbine or elsewhere been legally carrying concealed weapons, the outcomes would really have been different. People can only speculate as to that.

It's a balance of risks and people will, for a variety of reasons, balance them differently.
