Just for the record, police officers do sometimes care about color rendition. I don't want to create a report or spot broadcast and say that the suspect was wearing a gray shirt when it was tan, cream, etc. Also, needing to look for blood or various things while searching for evidence at night matters, too. It is not all about there is a guy in the corner with a gun, or is it a cell phone? Dang, I wish I had the one bin brighter(7% max) cool white light instead of the neutral white version and I would know for sure if that is a cell phone or a gun, knife, etc.
If anyone believes that a 7-10% in brightness makes a significant difference then I strongly disagree. All things being equal most people would barely be able to see that amount of difference even when A/B comparison. The thing that I notice the most is that no natural light looks like cool white LED light. I mean it doesn't matter how cool the CCT measurement is outside, such as on a very overcast day or something, it still doesn't make objects appear similar to the same CCT cool white LED. My experience is that a more neutral tinted LED has more relevance to real world appearances compared to natural lighting, regardless of time of day CCT.
To each his own on preference. Put another way, people with white skin do not have a pale and ghostly look to them when in high CCT daylight. Under moonlight, yes, but not daylight in my experience. Cool white LED illumination just makes things look unnatural to me and I think most neutral white fans agree about this point. I have said enough now, I will get off my soapbox.
