Default "Choosing Lights for Your Bicycle: Ten No-CompromiseRequirements" article

I have no problem with 'off road' lights used as high beams. But your primary, in town light needs to have some type of cutoff and preferably a beam pa5tern as I described in a previous post. Your beloved symmetrical beam lights are probably great for use as auxiliary lights for use when you're all by yourself and want to ride fast, but for in town use if they're bright enough to be useful for 'seeing-by' lights then they are also offensive to other road users.
