I don't think anyone was suggesting medics jam one in a bullet tract and be like, "go home, boys. Our job is done"

Obviously. But you want to be sure there’s someone left to save before that medic does show up. Which might be a while.

In first aid, doing the wrong thing can be quite detrimental. So people should at least be aware that there’s better options at hand even if they don’t have an actual tourniquet or other medical supplies.
