Did being top 10 in an aimtrainer help me in FPS games?

If you've been in aimtraining communities for a while, I'm sure you've heard something about there being a limit to its effectiveness. That at a high enough level, your improvement in scores in aimtrainers won't be reflected in game. This is something I used to believe myself, but I wanted to truly put the idea to the test, if I got into the top 10 worldwide in an aimtrainer, would I get better in fps games?
This is by far the most amount of time and effort I've ever put into a single video, even disregarding how long it took to actually get the scores this took ages to edit and script, I hope you all enjoy ❤️
The gameshow style fps I was playing at a few points throughout this vid is called the finals, its free on steam and the most fun I've had in an FPS in years, I highly recommend it ^^
The benchmarks I use are the season 3 voltaic kovaaks benchmarks, I chose them since I think they translate better to in game performance than the newer season 4 benchmarks or the aimlab benchmarks. If you'd like them yourself, go into the link below, click on file, make a copy and add your scores!

I found that my aim improved the best when I started incorporating the other aim categories, instead of only focusing on what "made sense for the game I played". Here's an Iroh quote for absolutely no reason: "It is important to draw wisdom from many different places. If we take it from only one place, it becomes rigid and stale" - General Iroh.

This really opened my eyes about improving in fpses from aim training. I too felt like my aim had reached a point where it was good enough for all scenarios in fpses, but perhaps that's because I didn't focus on skillsets I'm weak at and my fundamentals not being perfect. This video regained some of my motivation and desire to improve my aim *for* fpses as well, there perhaps is no ceiling for this skill. Wonderfully crafted video!
