The problem is there is so much whine on the forms it gets hard to tell the whine from normal discussions.
When I'm in a platoon parked at the warpgate, I blink the lumifiber on my Galaxy in a strobe pattern so its easier for the squad leader I'm assigned to transport to pick me apart from the other Galaxies in our air squad. It works pretty well since my Gal's always the first one loaded, usually in under ten seconds.
If you want to be disguised, put on camouflage and do not put on any lights. Flashy stuff not only looks cool, it has an intimidation factor too.
I'm not saying your opinion is wrong or anything, it's your opinion after all =p. I'm just trying to understand WHY you dislike the limifiber. Of all the aestethic stuff, they are one of the cooler options in my opinion!
