However this isn't super slick, these can be had for around this price many times every year.
Also, it should be noted because of the way light spread out, in order to get double the brightness of lets say 2k lumens, you would need to go up to 8k lumens. Therefor, 5k lumens isn't that big of a deal or that bright when you can find 2-3k lumen legit (sofirn/wurkkos or Convoy) lights on sale from much cheaper.

If you're going to suggest a ratio of diminished returns, it can't just randomly start at 2000 lumens.
But you're implying that somehow the optics get worse above 2000 lumens for some reason?
All of the modules used in these flashlights are very directional and don't even need projection lenses, so how is spread even a factor?
Everyone's eyes are different and certain activities can be better with different color temperatures.
But if you're prone to migraines, a warmer light is definitely the way to go.

So a 1000 lumen flashlight next to a 2000 lumen flashlight is not double the brightness.

Its somewhat subjective. I find 2700 to be "mood lighting". The 4-5K is my preferred neutral white range. Yes, 6K and over tends to lose considerable CRI more often than not, however it usually comes with a considerable increase in brightness. If monochromatic visibility is your primary goal, 6500 might be a good choice.
But largely, I do agree with your preferred temps, and I suspect most people do as well.
Where does Convoy come into this? I assume they are made in the same region?
Always liked them a bit more than Sofirn/Wurkkos because Simon seems more honest. Years ago Sofirn sent me a message on reddit offering me free flashlights in exchange for good reviews. That really rubbed me the wrong way.
I prefer the 21700 battery as this is becoming more common and the SC33 comes with a slightly upgraded emitter (XHP70.3)
Specs seem very similar; but there may be some other nuance between the two LED lights that someone else may be able to comment on?
