Simply dismissing decockers out of hand because "you shouldn't be running DA/SA" is crazy and WASN'T your original point to begin with. I'll quote you again and see if you can stay on point this time:
You didn't say "I think DA/SAs are antequated and shouldn't be used" (that at least would be a half-ass defensible position), you said "decockers are for pussies. Manly men like me aren't afraid to decock manually".
There's nothing wrong with running a DA/SA in this day and age if it suits your preferences and purposes, but if you do, a decocker is a huge plus (which, I'd venture to guess, is probably why pretty much every DA/SA available today is available with a decocker).
