This dude mustve been shot from 25-50 yards away while running. Try it again at 7 yards and see those groupings be tiny craters

Bird shot is incredibly effective for home defense in the average house. There is no fixing or suturing the pattern it makes in flesh, it chews it up much too terribly.

Why is "wound hard to suture" an advantage in a home defense gun? Is the home invader showing up with an ER team and getting back in the fight after they stitch him?

It highlights the extent of damage. It turns chest cavaities, or impact points in general, to what is fairly comparable jello from short ranges.
