That is why my definition of concealed carry is no one should realize you have a weapon unless you are frisked or go thought a magnetometer type device!
Now I realize different periods of the year and what you are carrying can change the equation some what, but my first sentence is my goal. When my son or wife has to ask me if I'm carrying, I know I'm doing right!

The one thing I would suggest is that in a confrontation, bringing your hand to your gun without drawing it telegraphs:
(a) "I have a gun!"
(b) "It's here at my 4:30!"
(c) "It sure would be hard to draw that gun if somebody grabbed my right arm!"

I'm not disagreeing with you, necessarily--concealment makes for good retention. But just because you had concealment when you dressed that morning, doesn't mean you'll have it when you really need it.
Ultimately, however, if there's a person within arm's reach, it's not "my gun" or "your gun", it's "
our gun".
