Each to his own I guess. I used to bore sight looking down barrel, then won a Bushnell Pro grid unit as a door prize. Used it to sight in my 17. HMR the first time I used it. It was a half inch off at 100 yards first shot. I've had results from that, out to 4" off at a hundred yards on a dozen rifles for myself and friends. One of the rifles we did was a friend's model 70 Featherweight in .270. It was also dead on first shot. They work. Anybody who wants to laugh at them, won't hurt my feelings.

Edit; for context, those first rounds were shot from a steady bench rest, seems the most reliable way to sight in and eliminate operator error.
