yes, I do realize that. My question wasn't about deception. certain items can be brought in with you, here things such as headlamps are additionally being recommended. I am asking where one should keep these, should they be kept in a vehicle? can they be kept in your room? I see nothing inappropriate or controversial about my question. If these items are not required but are being recommended I am simply asking how one would bring them in.
further, what relevance does the initial date of the thread have on my question? The advice herein should still be applicable and therefore is still worth questioning/commenting on.
