The photos did not show any idiocy.

Bull****. Its stupid to have a choc block there. He should have
replaced the cord entirely so there is no join and if that isnt
practical, the choc block should be inside the metal case of
the light. Better to have a soldered joint and heatshrink tho,
then no chance of it coming loose over time.

If I can be arsed, I could encase the whole block in a plastic resin in a
few minutes.

And that would look even more grotty.

And inaccessible screw terminals are deprecated.
