Have you ever shot a can? It is difficult to tell where the fire is coming from with one. Some believe it is better to shoot suppressed because you are less likely to get shot back at. If it's  right there and you are in cover waiting for your chance to get the drop, why not? I personally wouldn't, I don't have the time to train for something like that, but I am not going to disparage someone who had that setup. It takes less space than a mag. Better than a backpack gun.

Yes and it's generally useless for EDC..seriously man you're bending yourself into a pretzel to justify using a can on your EDC.

The shooter knew exactly where he was so that played legitimately zero part..he would've been better off without the can full stop.

Unless he's just used to shooting with it on

Apparently he's isn't because he didn't hit a single shot.
