The emphasis on choosing to access a flashlight instead of other weapon options ignores that such tools are frequently already in hand and in use at the onset of hostilities; the primary purpose of the tool being to provide light, after all. And that at that point in time, given proximity and the urgency of the moment, the light in hand is ready for action, where the other options are not.
That and the easier access often afforded by light which do not require concealment or opening vs. other weapon/tool options which do; but that's subjective tot he given person with given tools.
Oh, and in my opinion, the greatest asset the crenelations provide is the protection they afford the lense. Two lenses later, I may have to upgrade for that reason alone.
