And U.K. has some draconian laws on the books and I'm truly sorry for you.
Here in Canada rule is motor has to be 500w how you control it is up to you and where I live the police are way too busy to worry about me what with gang warfare shootings fentanyl crisis etc etc

Ultimately there is no right or wrong answer just personal preference.
It's not an eBike light, only a searchlight with mount adapter to put it on mtb's. Real (e)Bike lights are designed for road use like car headlights. This means a cutoff-beam shape, optics with hidden LEDs, air optimized cooling design and remote controls.

Since i'm not affected by UK laws, you don't have to be sorry (for me).

Many things are compromises.
For fenders these are optical expectations vs. practical advances.
