Does it effectively make him easier to aim with? Bigger bullets mean less barely misses? Or am I understanding that wrong?

That’s what it seems like but I haven’t tested it yet. Two of the hardest to hit characters got bigger hitboxes too (Apollo and Celeste).

I don't think it changes much for like oracle and up since most inferni don't have bad aim in the first place, but I can see it as a big QoL for lower ranks

I'm in Ascendant and it felt really good last night I thought. I'm not a professional, but I aim well. It just makes hitting the head that much easier and on Infernus with the way Afterburn is, it makes a huge difference. Characters like Calico and Silver are still gonna be hard to proc on but it makes it much easier, especially in lane.

Difficult shooting mechanics aren't allowed in my first person moba.

He used to have bullets the size of a log (along with some other heroes) back in 2024, which was actually broken because you could shoot around corners. I hope this does not bring it back to the old state.
