Yeah, but depending on where you are walking, it causes you to be seen.
There are a couple of pre-dawn joggers around here, I consider

If you are afraid of being attacked by something/somebody in the dark

Yeah, cars. I agree that if your eyes have enough time to adjust to the
dark, a flashlight is rarely needed to see, but it does help in being
seen by drivers.

Years ago, when I commutted by bicycle, if I had to ride at night (not
often), I would rather NOT be seen. I always figured I could see cars
long before they saw me and I would get far off the road and out of
their view. For some reason, at night, people in cars like to harrass
cyclists at night
