The decision to carry a firearm with a mounted light is job-specific and depends on individual circumstances. While law enforcement officers may need lights for various tactical situations, civilians might prioritize comfort and frequency of carry. For civilians, if not carrying a light enables more comfortable appendix carry and thus more frequent firearm carriage, that may be the preferred approach for increased personal protection. However, having a light accessible, even if not mounted on the firearm (e.g., in a vehicle), is recommended for general preparedness beyond just self-defense scenarios.
