Don't worry, they were indeed the oblivious arsehole. "I'm alright Jack and I can't be bothered to engage my brain to consider how anybody else might be affected by my insane lighting option".
Also surely riding with constant strobe lighting everywhere (especially on a tow path or similar) must be an unpleasant headfuck for the owner of the strobe?!

Innit... I can't wrap my head around why they think it's a good idea. Maybe it comes out of the box with the flashy setting and they never bothered to try and change it?

Another cyclist coming towards me on the tow path last night with full beam head torch set to seizure-inducing flashy flashy mode. Shouted 'are you trying to give me a seizure?' at them and immediately felt like an arsehole, they were just trying to be safe I guess and probs oblivious to how it affects people cycling in the opposite direction... oh well, maybe they got the message?
