When discussing such things with drivers, one of the biggest, and most comment complaints they lecture to me about is how bright and dazzling modern day lights are; to a point where it actually is being counter productive to the safety of those involved.
I think using lights during the day is fine, as long as they aren’t too bright. To be honest, the same goes for night-time riding: You don’t need 900 lumens to ride on the road, even the darkest of dark country lanes. My 250 lumen MiNewt works perfectly, even on fast descents.
