Prove it.
No, he let two seconds go by, let Maul and Opress go, and gave Yoda 35 seconds to recover because he's an asshat. Evidence speaks for my points.
I mean when you shock someone like Yoda, who like you said is an esteemed Jedi master and the grandmaster when you shock him, you start to really think he can't do anything, so to him it wasn't a dumb decision. To us we have a third person view, so we know it was a bad decision, he didn't.
Now let's say the context shall we? Come on Quan let's examine the context.
Sidious isn't an idiot. He has never once needlessly let himself be put in danger. Sidious vs Windu, was in control, knew Anakin was coming and when, and had his power to fall back on, Luke vs Vader, he knew Vader was going to do that or, he had his massive power to help, Sidious vs the guards, again precog, and protocol, their orders aren't to shoot immediantly, unless it's clearly obvious they are a threat like a gigantic monster running towards you. So Sidiois had complete control over all of those situations.
No he chokes right out the gate. Waht was the first thing he did. He choked them out. He let them go because they were not a threat, and he knew they couldn't hurt him, Yoda I explained above. Keep on dreaming.
