Because of that, the gears start moving at full speed at the same time and trigger response is increased.

We do the same thing in RC planes when running on brushed motors... because theses lack the instantaneous torque of brushless, we use a way faster motor with a reduction gearbox to get the same result.
I didn't want to do the math and explain all the details, but my post still stands as the result.
