Increased stress creates unnecessary situations.
Besides, as you said, most of the cats are just attention whores.
I've never understood the supposed point of open carry in the modern world. As you say, it frightens and unnerves others and does not protect you at all. A criminal who knows you have a gun will act accordingly. The gun in your holster or slung across your back does you no good when someone has their gun pointed at your face.
