Near the end of the article, he mentions that some people say that it's more difficult to aim a weapon that has a shorter sight radius. Actually, I think it's more accurate to say that having your sights out of alignment with shorter sight radius will have a more dramatic effect on your accuracy.

This makes the visual-mental-physical feedback loop of keeping them aligned as precisely as you possibly can, much more difficult. Shooting accurately is much more than just physically holding the barrel steady; it's a whole "symphony" of coordination, involving physical, visual and mental components.
