If the coriolis effect is enough to effect a bullet moving at 1800mph that is only in the air for 400ms before it hits its target, so much so that the shooter has to account for it, why doesn't it affect an airplane moving at only 500mph for many hours at a time? Why do airplanes travel 200 miles going east and arrive at the same time as if they were going 200 miles west instead? It's cognitive dissonance to say that it affects a sniper bullet going super fast for a fraction of a second but somehow doesn't affect anything going slower for longer durations. Hot Air Balloons should be particularly affected. And if it's strong enough to affect sniper bullets, the wind would only ever blow in one direction.
Interviews with snipers admit they never account for the coriolis effect. You can find it.
