For defensive weapons leave them fully loaded with spare magazines. If appropriate for the weapon load the chamber to.

The springs might fail to load the last round in 10 to 20 years. How much does a new spring cost? How much will you want a fully loaded magazine when you grab your gun?

My thoughts exactly. My response to the article was to buy two more magazines for the two pistols that only had one. I have an easily accessible gun safe in my bedroom, and could have a loaded weapon in my hand in seconds. Or I could have an unloaded on. This struck me as an easy choice, and it also may me wonder how some folks look at self protection.

Try reloading a magazine with your system full of adrenaline. It doesn't work.

If he really wanted the best reliability he should just get a high capacity revolver.

No if he really wanted the best reliability he would get a sword.
