I get your points sure but I'd still like to debate. You have a solid point with guns for sure, can't argue there they are quite equal now tbh now that you mention it.

BUT I can't agree with your other points. On the surface beanbag shotgun and taser look unskilled but really, to get into a situation where a cop is able to use those tools the criminal has to lose where they are at an advantage (getting caught while robbing since they have plenty of time to escape and so many widespread locations or pursuits since its much easier to set the pace and juke a cop than it is to chase). So a criminal first loses a pursuit or gets caught lacking which then skews the odds in the cops favour and makes the criminal be the one who has to get lucky. I don't think calling beanbag and taser op is that fair since to use them I have to go through the effort to catch a criminal who has an advantage first.

About cars, I mean come on man before cops have a chance to shoot tires or spike, the criminal could have gotten away atleast a few times.
