After searching for new sights for IDPA competition, I noticed most setups were using flat black rear sights with a fiber front sight. Why do most people prefer no dots in the rear?

Because they want to focus on the front sight. Most speed shooters don't really look at thier sights anyways, they shoot on feel, but for the times when the range is increased and accuracy is more important, the plain rear allows the bright front sight to stand out more. I personally like the three dot set up.
