In what possible way is maintaining the best possible orientation of a firearm not practical?
No no no. What I'm saying is it may not be practical to point it in a place that is less consequential because the consequences can vary so drastically in one's mind. Imagine teaching a kid to point it in a place with the least consequences, you leave it up to their own interpretation of what that means. Saying, "don't flag your buddies and civilians, and only point it at a direct threat to your life" would be better. Because it is more direct and leaves the only possible option in a manner of self defence. Making it more practical for those who are mentally inadequate of interpretation
If your kid is too stupid to understand the significance of a firearm and understand what, "direction of least consequence" means, then he's not ready for firearms. That's a case by case basis, and I don't know anyone who would fall into that category at the time they were being taught how to use firearms.
These rules aren't meant to be left on their own - they're meant to be explained and understood.
Have you ever met kids giving you impossible hypotheticals to the point where you need them to stfu? Clear and concise instructions prevent mishaps. And education in firearms teaches discipline. A direction of least consequence could be anywhere. You point a rifle at the ground or at a wall and it goes off, could knock off the ground/wall and hit someone. If it shoots in the air, could come back down and hit someone. And teaching ballistics to children isn't an easy thing to do
Again, if your child is treating firearms like this, they aren't ready for them. It's a serious topic and they should understand that before you're even thinking about handing them a firearm. There's not a single thing confusing about, "direction of least consequence" - and I didn't pull that phrase out of my own ass, either.
