...besides, I think it may have something to do with the processor having more room for a little bit more code that's not hard to add. Why not, as has been said - rather have it & not need it than to need it and not have it.
Believe me there are indeed many scenarios where that extra "photonic bling" comes in handy (especially up here in Alaska!).
I'm speculating the extra "bling/gadget factor" probably appeals to "Joe Average" citizen (Indiana Jones wannabes?) as well? :thinking: How many people really don't need a Hummer, but it's the "cool" thing to drive?

Hehe....I've driven a Hummer way before it was a cool thing to drive/own.
I've never had any sort of strobe on any of my lights until I bought a Novatac and got an eval of the OpticsHQ/Tactical Light Solutions 6P tail cap.
Since I got them, I've used the strobe twice. So I can say it's definitely useful.
