Carrying on an empty chamber is actually called "Israeli style", and it is tactically unsound.
Because you should never draw a gun unless you're in mortal danger, and if you're in mortal danger you should turn their lights out as soon as possible.
Ideally an intruder or mugger would never see your gun for more than a fraction of a second, and wouldn't hear anything at all.

She didn't understand "Get out of my way."
She didn't understand "Leave me alone."
She didn't understand "Stop blocking my car from leaving."
But she understood loud and clear the sound of a bullet being chambered into that handgun.
Some people don't understand anything other than physical threats. You can't reason with a violent instigator.
