In essence, I have gained twelve minutes of hunting time over you and your dog..
I promise that learning how to shine and squall a tree from a competitive stand point is very important..
The dim light slowly getting louder takes to long.
The key is to get to a spot that you can shine the tree the best, and work the tree over hard and fast... If coons are there they are usually easy to find..
You bring up some good points because my post was not concerning comp hunting. I still would opt for the low light method though myself. I have found if a coon is going to look at the low light, he will probably do it in the first 1-2 minutes so you still are really not loosing much time.
If that coon is hid well and will not look at the bright light, you probably will not see him at all!
