I suspect that your analysis is more or less right. I was watching one night in 2010 from roadside on the 375 highway and I saw the sky light up for 20 minutes...After thinking initially I was something unique and thinking it was a UFO and getting totally blown away.I was later informed it was a flare.. So I wonder how often they use flares compared to how often they light up the runway !
What I am not sure about is how often at night would they light up the runway ?
