Maybe raise/lower the straddle cable so that it's above/below the light or use a smaller and drilled yoke. Being the rear brake I'm not concerned with any loss of power.
I noticed it because that tail light implementation is probably my favorite thing on the bike - clean, simple, well executed, really well done. It looks like it belongs there rather than being added on or bolted, as is the case with so many bicycle lights.

It's great!

P.S. - Something I learned in a fire safety class - fire extinguishers are to be used for punching a hole in the flames so you can exit the building.

More safety stuff - you don't want dust, dirt and debris to get to the back of the electrical outlets. Cover the outlet.
