I know how aspiration works. I also saw one doc at a "vax drive" kind of thing jabbing people so quickly they literally didn't even notice what was going on, and that definitely won't work if you try and aspirate.

I say "potentially uncomfortable" because that's what the expert in the video said. I guess it's mostly uncomfortable for people with a fear of needles.

They don't forget, they're not trained to. With most "classical" vaccines it makes no difference. It's pretty well recorded. (There's been a podcast of one German expert on the topic, it's on youtube but it's in German obviously. He goes into detail on how myocarditis cases were seen more in patients that got the jab in a vax center, where mostly young recently-trained people worked, as opposed to resident GPs which tended to work the "old-school" way, with aspiration.)

It's not routine for most vaccinations any more (at least not in my part of Europe). It takes longer, is potentially uncomfortable for the patient, and doesn't make the "classical" vaccinations any safer. (e.g. MMR or polio boosters don't mess you up if they get into the blood stream.)

Once people figured out it was different for this one (thanks, spike protein) and the vascular complications seen in some covid infections could also happen post-vax if the spike got loose in the blood vessels, aspiration was recommended. This was some time last year, I believe.

I got the second booster just before christmas last year, at a vax center, and had to explicitly request aspiration. It's still not routine everywhere.
