With the benefit of a landing light, it is probable, though not guaranteed, that I could land reasonably safely.

I would say it would make virtually no difference to your chance of survival and to think it would is extreme optimism, however that is irrelevant to this thread.

Most of us have made the mistake of taking of in inappropriate weather and generally learn to tell the tale and grow in our experience, sadly sometimes innocent victims were with them who were not in a position to make an informed decision about the risks.
