You are so wrong, I do a lot of night riding. In the winter around 70% of my commutes and training rides are when it is dark or at dawn/dusk. Feel free to ignore science and facts, but please don't confuse them with anecdotal "experience" and call them "opinions". I know that some people _feel_ more safe with blinking lights, despite all the evidence to the contrary. Some people wear lucky charms for the same reason.

There is absolute zero research that shows that blinking lights are an advantage.
There are several studies that indicate that flashing lights are actual unsafe to use.

This is why flashing lights for cyclist have been banned for decades if not more, in most countries with strong cycling commuting traditions. This is also why no other road vehicle uses flashing front or rear lights. If there really was an advantage why don't motorcycles or cars that moves at much higher speeds use flashing front or rear lights?
