It has nothing to do with loading a modern swing out cylinder revolver. But it has a lot to do with the concept of superiority.

"Superiority" is subjective and individual. What one person sees as superior may well be irrelevant to someone else.

To say five rounds are superior to four rounds or six rounds is superior to five or seven is superior to six are all simply opinions.

To say five rounds are more than four rounds or six rounds is more than five or seven is more than six is fact. To say a swing out cylinder is faster to load than a single action gated design is fact.

Language and words actually make a difference.

I do not feel any less protected with one of my old SAA Clones loaded using the old 1, skip, load 4 method than with a 5 or 6 round swing out cylinder or with a 22LR than with a 45acp. Others feel differently. I do not find one superior to the other.
