Heck the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon is very similar to that of a B-29 and the famous TIE fighters are basically B-17/B-24 ballturrets with the MGs removed and vertical solar panels added. Most of the "space combat" sequences were inspired by or copied from old WWII aerial combat footage.
This is the whole point they don't get, if they are saying the tracers look like SW and CoD has them looking like SW which based them on WW2 tracer rounds then they are correct, the fact no one knows what a laser round looks like as they don't actually exist, the whole discussion is pointless.

I think they are more plasma looking
