I disagree that it proves this. The supposed absolute of always carry chambered in this scenario is in my mind a crutch for lack of proficiency. Fully admitting that I do not possess such proficiency myself, I have trained under people that could very easily draw from concealment, charge, and fire on target before anyone else in the class could fire from chambered (and some tried holstered outside of concealment).

This, of course, ignores other variables like being in a situation where one arm is disabled, etc. Should you carry chambered? Yea, for most of us, probably so. Does the Tueller drill *prove* that? Not nearly as adequately as other situations do.
It proves it for 99% of the people. I'll give you your 1% which is really not even relevant to the conversation.
