Not at all, what occurs to me is that I'm being responsible and safe. Thanks for trying to read my mind though and I'm sure some would say it's a short story at best.
Let's turn this thought process around shall we? What will happen when you think the gun is empty but it isn't? Or do you point the gun at any and everything because you're positive it's empty, intrinsically safe and no different than pointing a metal pipe at someone?
It's muzzle control, muzzle control and muzzle control above all else and that takes a conscious effort. Anything to do with one in, one out, safety on, safety off is relative to human memory and habit which we all know is fallible and it's failure has caused the death of untold numbers of people over the years.
