The streak effect I was referring to is the effect YOU were talking about. (Remember your flashlight / candle analogy?) That only can happen if you are trying to focus on a single round.

Who said a dot of light didn't have a trail? A tracer produces a streak of light meaning not just a dot (depending on your offset position) And once you actually fire them, you'll realize that the front of that trail and the back of that trail look virtually identical (aka a straight line). And that line is there because your eyes are not good enough to simply focus on an object moving at that rate of speed. That's why once you TRY to do this that line can get all sorts of goofy looking.

I'm done arguing. This is pointless.

If you'd said you didn't think it was worth including, or that you don't want it including or that you're 100% happy with the CoD tracers then I would have let it go, that's your opinion. I have no problem with that. None.

When you are telling me that 'my' theory is wrong when its demonstrably right, then I'll defend it.

'O' is an example of the outline of a circle. Colour it in, guess what? it's still a circle. Why are you even arguing this point?
