I almost did that to someone in a ute coming the other way last night with the big spotties on. He didn't dip them at all and all I could see were his lights & then nothing.
But I have kids to consider, even if I was alone in the JK at the time.

Somehow I have managed to get the blinkers to stop flashing when I lock/unlock the car with the remote. I just wish I knew how, so I could turn it back on...
Perhaps it is just one of those things the ECU periodically decides to do, like the way that, every so often, it stops auto locking or unlocking the doors. I had to re-enable the auto unlock of the back doors when the front are opened again, as well.
