The beams aren't focusable and are harder to make a clear signal with in bright conditions.

If you are training with a "DIR" angle this in an important feature as your light is your "voice" and good communication is essential to stop us becoming separated. A clear signal also helps resolve difficult issues when technical diving, if you need the assistance of a buddy quickly. The lights are also easier to mount securely on the right hip using your webbing waist strap.
