I take it to mean the opposite. Meaning the gun can go off at anytime when pulling the trigger, so keep it under control and the sights aligned until it does.

Pardon me for coming off as brash, but I've never heard that term before. As stated before, surprises are the last thing I'd ever want in regards to a firearm in mine, or anyone else's hands.

Oh crap.
Someone dun bumped the thread.
I understood Blaster quite clearly and in my opinion, he is correct. People who actually shoot their guns will know that guns trigger, and know when it will break. They get used to the recoil blast and impulse and dont flinch as much.
People get trigger work done, not only to lighten a trigger pull, but to remove take-up, creep, which all lends to make the trigger break more predictable. Some people mistakenly think a light trigger means a more accuracy, it does not. "Suprises" dont equal consistency.
I used to prefer single stage triggers as they "suprised" me when they broke. As I became a more experienced shooter, my experience has shown me that a 2 stage makes things more predictable. I prefer Stock Glock Triggers with some polishing and plunger mods, AR Geissele 2 Stage Triggers, Modified KVAR AK Triggers, and 2 Stage Remington 700 Triggers. They all give me a first stage, and then a "wall". This gives a shooter greater control of the gun and greater confidence with the firearm.
IMO, I wasted my time posting this because people have their mind made up anyway. IMO, there is a lot of instructors that simply repeat what they have been taught, and dont always ask "why". Asking why, is what makes an instructor understand more about what they "know", and back it up when asked by a student.
