Lots of factors that have nothing to do with the actual tracers.

Yet, i did shooting when i was in the military, and we fired tracers, and i never thought they were looking like lasers, because they weren't. Cameras can see them as lasers, but our eye doesn't.

As far as i can remember, tracers looked just like tiny color lights flying very fast to the target, it lasted very short time, less than a second.
+1, I have fired many thousands of M240 tracers and I remember Oleg acknowledging that CloD uses the "non vibrating camera exposure tracer effect", aka lasers with a length of a few meters (the distance a tracer goes while the camera shutter is open). In real life like you say they are just tiny dots racing away as the eye has no shutter speed... But that is not completely true so some shutter lag feeling is present IRL too
