Default Spinner strobing as a "Bird Strike Countermeasure"

When observed directly under artifical light that "flickers", the most
obvious being a strobe light, but there are other types of artificial
lights that have flicker.

That is an artifact of the lighting, not of human vision.

Additionally, natural light (e.g., sunlight) does not flicker.
