The concept wasn't necessarily bad, the implementation was awful ...
If they allowed you to only use a flashlight while holding the pistol you can create tension because they're as "weak" as they were at the beginning of the game; if you only allow them to hold the flashlight you have the gamers confused as to how pathetic your super space marine really is.
