Unhappy

How about this one ?
Taxying at night in an aircraft fitted with strobes but no rotating beacon. I would normally go for nav lights and taxy or landing light. Technically anti-collision lights are also required but if only strobes are fitted can the PIC elect to leave them off in the interests of safety ie blinding everyone else when taxying, especially near the apron ?

My last multi instructor insisted on taxying with the strobes on which I didn't like at all.
