I agree … but I think law enforcement use the term ‘non-lethal’ as a bit of public relations and legal wording to make themselves look good.
To me … both ‘non-lethal’ and ‘less-lethal’ mean that they are less likely to kill you … but still have a good risk of killing you if they hit in the right place. But either terminology also means that if the projectile is small enough and fast enough … it would be fast enough to destroy your eye and blind you.
It’s “less lethal,” not “non lethal.” Your point about safety glasses is still a good one though.
