Just telling you like it is...
How can I be wrong? I'm giving you personal experience from the receiving end - what the guy who's aiming the light says is irrelevant.
I am 100% certain.

They dim them for other drivers as required by traffic laws. It is required because asking the other driver to simply look away would be ineffective and unreasonable.
CE, not every bright bicycle light is a problem. Some of them are serious problems. I think the only way to really be sure is to prop the bike up one night and walk or ride by.
