Again, using a carbine for home defense makes stray shots LESS likely. Using a 5.56mm carbine for home defense makes stray shots less likely, and also makes it less likely that any stray shots that do occur will penetrate very far through interior walls. But the 5.56mm carbine is "an assault weapon" (a term you still haven't defined) so you say that no-one has any possible reason to use it.
