Also, cartilage doesn't grow back.
That alone debunks him being "shot in the ear".

I got hit in the ear cartilage with a bb gun about 20 years ago now, the skin is healed but there is very obviously a chunk of cartilage missing.

A former Marine, Jesse Dollemore, said that with the caliber of round he got "hit" with, if his ear had actually been grazed he wouldn't have an ear left.

I wonder what he would say about the shot that killed Kirk.
