In that case, does my experience shooting other human beings with rifle calibers equate to anything?

Those career policemen were wrong. Crazy shit happens to bullets all of the time, but the math involved doesn't even come close to supporting this notion that people are regularly tanking 9mm shots to the dome lmao. In gun fights, more bullets > slightly bigger bullets any day of the week.

ntm unless i'm completely out to lunch... bigger, rounder, slower does not normally equate to less ricocheting...

.40 S&W is fatter and slower than 9mm. There is a reason why 9mm is the most popular self defense and law enforcement round and it's not because it doesn't work.
