Very interesting and informative thread.
I do realize some of this thread refers to "point shooting" as pointing from the waist. I have always understood pooint shooting as pointing at your target with the weapon eye level so that's what the following refers to.
I have been training in and using point shooting or instinctive shooting for close to 20 years and agree with many of the posts here; you're still aiming at some level. The farther away the target, the more you use your sights. The "point" aspect is simply to get your first round on target asap. If shooting correctly (stance, grip, etc.) if your first shot is a hit, the following shots will follow suite. Even when point shooting, the doctrine states, "see" your target VIA the sights. Sight picture (unless in darkness).
The "pointing" is the method to get "on target" quickly.
