But guy with his gun ready is just as fast, and guy with his stick in a sheath is equally slow.

If the other guy has a superior weapon and kills me with it, how does it matter to me that my weapon didn't hurt anything behind him and his did?
This sort of restraint only makes sense when you're confident the other guy won't cheat either - which usually means either the advantage of the banned weapon is fairly small, or the consequences of using it are *really* bad. If I die if a lose, I'm not going to give up a superior weapon because I'll need to patch a hole or pay off a lawsuit, it's going to have enough of a risk of killing me to offset the reduced risk my enemy will.
