Perhaps your superior instructive, or psychological counseling abilities, have overcome the small minority of people the rest of us have encountered that can't, or don't want to learn to shoot more effective calibers. Or perhaps those people don't choose you for a teacher. Regardless, I disagree that those people will likely just "anger" an attacker, with multiple 9"-10"+ deep, .45 caliber wound channels, delivered accurately, quickly, and confidently, from a weapon that they will actually carry.
