Depends on where you are mate!
Have you ever landed at night at a small strip such as Andrewsfield or Elmset? places like that do not have apron lights,
unlike say Southend or Norwich which you can see 40 miles away.
At the small strip you have the basic runway lights, Red /Green end/ threshold lights, VASI(maybe) and the airfield beacon only. (and that’s on a good day when its all servicable)
Its a hard job even to see the runway from downwind.
A landing or taxi light pointing up the approach can be very distracting and the other night caused me to goaround from the round out as I was blinded by a taxiing C152.
I try and teach a 'common sense' approach and awareness to what is going on around you. At small strips the taxiway can be very close to the active runway, so any A/c taxiing to the hold will need his lights on as we do not have lit taxiways. However then its good manners to stop and switch the main lights off when a landing aircraft is on short finals or to turn away from the approach line. The approaching A/C can see your nav lights/beacon and you have 2 way radio contact so there is no risk.
