As I said previous, those with a CCW are taught to recgonize the situation before you have the gun in your face. If you see an individual approach you you can tell them to stop. If they do not, you can tell them that you are armed. If then they still do not stop and you reach for your concealed weapon, many will think twice.

I don't think anyone who conceals if they were jumped and had a gun in their face would pull it out because you obviously don't have the time to. But that should be up to the carrier to decide.
