In a very small confined space, it strikes me that the odds of a running gunfight are somewhat on the low side. Even cops hit what they aim at most of the time, and at airplane cabin distances, it seems that the odds would be higher.

That is NOT my experience.

EXACTLY! Only in movies do gun fights at close range involve dozens and even hundreds of bullets flying around. In reality most 'gun fights' don't involve any shots bing fired. Someone pulls a gun or just shows they have one and the 'fight' is over instantly. I really hate it when people in movies standing in a small room unload their weapons at each other and no one gets hit. They whould have to try to miss for that many bullets to miss.
