When we lived in Somerset in the middle of the countryside, there were no street lights. I used to love sitting outside on summer nights with a full moon either reading or just looking at the stars.
I could take the dog for a walk at midnight with a torch because it was just so bright, but on nights with no moon, rustling in the hedgerows was a bit scary especially as there'd been sightings of big cat (possibly a panther) in the area, as there have been in other areas of the country which are a bit unpopulated and wild. Don't think I'd like to live in an unlit town, but I agree that all the light should be shielded and directed downwards.
