Instead of wasting your energy complaining about what lights should or should not be on during taxi, go and do something productive to get yourself out of the regionals as soon as possible. I'd recommend obtaining a bit more maturity and integrity first, though.
Same team? Ya right. That's like saying the Patriots and the Cowboys are on the same team, and they're definitely not of the same caliber even though they both play professional football. Some teams just perform better. Why is it that we seldom see mainline aircraft taxing around on active taxiways at night with their strobes on? And to suggest that's it's not a big deal until your at mainline is ludicrous. If we're all on the same team as you say why not respect your fellow pilots and not blind them when they're behind you on a taxiway or wait until your actually on the runway before turning strobes on at night?
