I am with you. The finger meets the trigger to shoot. Period. Souping up a gun or carrying hot loads on duty is nuts. Shoot to stop is synonymous with shoot to kill. Bad cops exist. But they are not the norm. Handicapping the norm to satisfy the cophaters is nuts.

Shoot to stop is synonymous with shoot to kill

Disagree. Center mass is actually BELOW the heart for one thing,and the whole "mens rea" thing comes into play. If you load Ricin into the cavity of a hyrda shock, sure- you intend to kill. If you shoot center mass, you are not necessarily "intending" to kill...and giving the relative weakness of handgun rounds, and modern medicine, ~80% of people so shot will live.
