Thats a very good point. It reminds of me the first time I pulled out bear spray, thumb off the clip, and prepared to use it. I didn't have to because yelling, making yourself big, and stomping can go a long way. When it was over I noticed I was actually holding it backwards. Embarassing but this was because of exactly this: I've never practiced using it and the situation require reflexived actions.
