I tend to agree...When I first began to carry, I was more than a bit nervous to carry a Glock with one in the pipe. A good friend (and policeman) told me to practice drawing and sitting and doing all my daily activities with an UNLOADED weapon and try to make the trigger go back unintentionally. I was able to prove to myself that in the proper holster it just wont happen. Obviously a certain amount of care and concentration will always be needed. But in this man's opinion, it seems bad to have one more step between me and bullets if they are to be needed. I also tend to think of how many weapons are being carried chambered at any given time---that is a very big number and we really don't hear about that many NDs.....
