A research conducted by a brigadier general showed that only 15-20 percent of soldiers actually would use their weapons. 80% of them refuse to take part in ending a human life. Similar thing with stormtroopers, 5 stormtroopers aim a Princess Leia at 8 feet away and all of the shots go miss. Yet rebel forces seem to smash the empire with no issue. Why? Because of the helmets the one feature that dehumanizes them. When you remove human qualities you can more easily justify acts of violence. The protagonists don't really see the storm troopers as human as an enemy. Same thing for the stormtroopers against the rebels in uniform. Then you got 3 people out of uniform and they don't see them as enemies but as a charming rouge (Han solo) a pretty princess (Leia) and a farm boy.(Luke) They don't wanna look chicken so then shoot but their aim is just a bit off for that one shot because no one's gonna find out right?

Quite simply, the stormtroopers lost because they were too human.

Then you have starscream who aim is worse trying than them not. He wouldn't be able to hit Luke from 6 feet away with a gating fun so yeah.
