 If you want to put many low power shots downrange fast, auto shotguns are plenty reliable with a stout load and they have inherent recoil mitigation as a bonus.  It's not like Joe Bloggs gives a crap about baton rounds and beanbags, and if you manage to gunk it up during a home invasion you have bigger problems than small arms can solve.
Different story if it was an easy conversion in a pinch.
