I don't use a blinking front light. I wonder if you are better off with a steady on front light. Missing turn signals because of the blinkie seems like a problem. I am curious. What do other blinkie users think? Is this a major issue when using a front blinkie?
IMHO a steady on front light in the daytime, if it's really bright enough to be seen, could easily be mistaken for sunlight glare off of a shiny surface. Better for that bright light to be flashing during the daytime.
