Yes, me. WTF use is the "flashing" mode?

Cyclists like to mount them on the front of the bike - mor "eye

Why would you mount a torch to a bike? You want a much wider beam 'to be
seen' than that from a torch.

Flashing lights on cycles are more down to improving battery life.

It makes them more visible to motorists - peripheral vision is far more
sensitive to movement or flashing...
