There is some method to the madness of the design. The plastic fails if you bike goes over and lands light down. It saves your light but costs £12 for the replacement mount. I have bought 2 of them so far.
But I agree that solid mounting for non-fork options are pretty poor.

Have you considered the spotter (tm) brass rod?

Can't you just add a mounting tab to the 'rack thing' and mount the light directly to that? IIRC the IQX mounting system isn't exactly complex.
P.S. Love the bar tape. Very Bet Lynch. Bye 'eck chuck.

Doesn't the IQX have a formed beam, which means mounting it upside down on the out front mount would flip the beam over?
Looking at that stem, can't you get creative and mount it there with a longer bolt?

Try the orignal B7M mount, its stainless and shorter so maybe stiffer

Well this make shift mount is predictably shit.
The rack thing is actually solid but the plastic mount that comes with the IQX is flexy as hell so the light bounces around everywhere.
Don’t have a hole in the fork crown so next attempt is going to be out front mount with GoPro mount underneath to mount the light directly to. Any recommendations?
