I see this more as a personal answer each user. I’ve spent what amounts to, in consecutive time, years shooting “under stress” with sub 1# triggers on handguns. I’ve never had issues with that. My defensive Glocks are set at super short, super sharp 3# pulls with zero take up.
I temper the above with the fact that no one has ever been shooting back at me. I do take issue with the “heavy leather work glove” example though. That strikes me as a “see I’m right because of x” argument. Most people can’t argue with that because you don’t want to try to stuff a welding glove in a trigger guard. I’ve not seen many surveillance vids of Street gunfights where the good guy was wearing welding gloves. Just sayin. The most would be a light set of winter gloves and I see that as something to address if you accept the responsibility of carrying a gun. Most work I do “outside” only requires a set of mechanix gloves. JMO.
ETA: Great points in the vid in the OP’s post. One thing that I’ve not heard anyone bring up is neuropathy. If you have issues with that and don’t have good sensation in your fingertips, that might argue for a heavier pull or more pretravel in a trigger.
