Yes, I want people to be able to identify me as a cyclist as quickly as possible. Not some mystery object at the side of the road with a flashing strobe light. I also turn my Radbot 1000 taillight from strobe to slow flash at dusk for the same reason. I'm also somewhat concerned the police might take exception to a cyclist using a strobe light at night (it may even be illegal.) Just my personal opinion based on watching lots of cyclists riding after dark here in LA. The slow flashing lights are best IMO (and by best I mean safest.)
