It is useless at that brightness.

Absolutely not. I’m a sucker for ultra low brightness modes, as in fractions of a lumen. It’s great for dark adapted eyes. It’s more than enough to see and move around, doesn’t ruin your dark vision, and won’t wake someone up accidentally. Runtime is practically unlimited. Why waste battery if you don’t have to?
