You’re not wrong but the movies did a crap job of it. It’s always better to show us something than tell us, and it told us they are good shots but showed us they suck. For basically all 3 movies.
They did show them sweeping through a horrificly deadly funnel defended by relatively well covered rebels and toasting them with no issues is the very first scene of the movie. The assault on the Tantove IV was basically suicide, and they still mopped up like it was Tuesday. The double reveal, by both Leia and Tarkin, is more than sufficient to make the point, instead of a hamfisted scene earlier of Vader giving them orders not to kill and eliminating all the tension from the escape.
They just threw bodies at it. Also, it’s not hard to hit somebody when they’re standing in a straight hallway grouped up like a bunch of morons caught out of cover. Absolutely idiotic that nobody tossed a grenade in.

Did you see all the troopers on the ground again?

Then clearly told us why.
