Flashing mode on a path/MUP is kinda silly, don't you think?
No. The bike path is crossed by cars every few blocks, and pedestrians more often. Worse, many pedestrians just walk on it. Flashing lights on the bike path keep people safe. I don't know what it's like on the path the OP is talking about, maybe there's nobody around. But I can't agree with a blanket statement saying that flashing lights should not be used on the bike path.
