Your Motorcycle trainers need some common sense and training.
That logic doesn't add up. When someone sees bright lights they don't get blinded and forget o there was someone right behind me. The whole blinding other motorists thing is ridiculous. Your halogens during the day are not that bright don't kid yourselves. Turn your brights on during the day and go stand in front of your bike.

Most drivers don't really notice two wheeled vehicles. Everyone is busy on their cell phones or showing off their pathetic attempt of navigating the mean streets.

I used to not run my highs during the day. I noticed that running the high beam that lane sharing and left hand turners stopped being a problem. People see a light then notice a cool red motorcycle. No harm done. No ones flashed me back.

It's funny how self conscience we are. I bet if you asked a handful of people on the road if they noticed you most would say no.
