Maybe for covert insertions where being quiet is necessary, but hostage rescues are fast and violent. You need surprise, speed and to overwhelm your adversaries before they can react and take actions against you or the hostages. Cornershot is too deliberate and too slow.
Photo comes from the recent US-Kurdish raid in Iraq on an ISIS prison, notice their speed?

Fast and violent saves lives, take too much time and you lose surprise and put yourselves and the hostages at risk.
...
As for the topic itself, I own an MR762.
I assumed cornershot gun would be used during a hostage situation because it allows its operator to both see and attack an armed target, without exposing the operator to counterattack.
Btw i just read that India(my country) made a similar weapon recently.
