Unfortunately, this is not true as most (not all) modern games increase accuracy of the Cone of Fire when in iron sights. They also reduce recoil effects. One of these allows hip-to-shoulder transitions too fast and too accurate which makes this over-powered.
I've found this to be true in most of the modern shooters I've played recently. It's the equivalent of "high and tight" in military tactics - raising the gun to your shoulder and bracing it. This provides a more stable firing "platform", better than shooting from the hip but not as good as using a tripod and laying prone. Almost no non-suppression fire team role will shoot from the hip (IRL), it's just a waste of ammunition.
