Heres my opinion from shooting a dot in open for the past 12 months.
If you need to AIM it like a rifle, the dot is a massive advantage. Example, shooting slugs, shooting plates at 30 yards covered by a no shoot, basically anywhere you will have to stop the gun on target. Key word here is "aim"
If youve done alot of shotgunning in your lifetime like trap or game birds (moving targets) with a more traditional set up then putting a dot on it may be a bit of a mind fuck. Everyones brain is wired differently, i struggled with the dot on a shotgun, you may like it. I found putting it as close to the muzzle as i could get it was alot better than having it right in front of my eye. Of course you can always just turn it off and go back to a more instinctive style of shooting and turn it on again when you need some precision.
Chuck one on and give it a whirl and see how you go👍
