One thing you did without saying it is that you use a constant on tail light at night with a flasher during daytime. That is what I do too.

Constant on types of lights at night allow someone to get a better depth perception for distance estimating. And when there is a car coming towards me from behind, I want the driver to not just see the direction I am in, but also be able to get a guess on how far away I am.

And the blinker in daytime is obvious, get their attention and since it is daytime they likely can see well enough for depth perception.
