Great!

This effect has nothing to do with weapons. It's something that happens in the eye when viewing a source of light that is moving and/or if you are moving.

I guess you'll just ignore this but, please explain to us how it works, and no "because I say so" doesn't cut it.
How do you explain the patterns of light that can be created by moving a sparkler fast before your eyes? That's the same effect as firing a tracer and then altering your positing, weather its the light or the viewer that is moving is irrelevant as it's the relative motion that is important.
