How about looking at it more practically?
The transition isn't quite as fast as the more commonly known magpul style draw
And it would take longer to bring your rifle back up to reload
BUT have you ever tried to run full tilt with a rifle hanging in front of your balls or on your hip? It fucking sucks.

Also keep in mind, most of these tactics are based on the AK and a 2pt sling. The most basic of cheap gear. They also train to use that sling in hand to hand combat, so they don't always have it around their neck.
Even the US forces of the era didn't have all this fancy shit like tacos and 3pt slings and serpa holsters.
So how about you compare that style of training and fighting, to cold war era US gear?
leather buckled pistol holsters, ALICE gear, 2pt slings, and mag pouches with flaps on them. Seems more practical to throw the rifle on your back now, doesn't it?

keep in mind deadliest warrior is a complete sham, works with very few variables, and is made in 'merica, which pretty well guarantees it's not going to be accurate
