I don't use MUP for my commute, just dark and unlit roads for the most part. My objective is to have good enough lighting to have clear visibility ahead of me while traveling 18-20 mph, and definitely be bright enough to catch road kill that may be in my path. I don't want stress the retina of drivers or be an obnoxious pain in the ass on my bike...just stand out and keep my space.
