If you were aiming a Sniper Rifle, you'd have to have a clear shot exactly where you want to hit (down to the exact inch or two), but with a Fireball, not much is going to change if you toss it half a foot or two to the right of your target than if you hit it directly.You're not really aiming at a person, just a very general area. Spellcasters are assumed to have practiced their own spells enough to not have to worry about too much aiming- plus, it's quite possible that the spellcaster could simply step to the side (after all, a 5-foot square is much bigger than you think) and then cast it.</blockquote>
