Would it be ricey to add strobe lights as my reverse lights?
Usually when I think of ricey things to add to a car, I think of stuff like stickers or plastic vents or LED lights. But adding strobe lights as the reverse lights would serve as a safety purpose I think. Wondering what you guys think. Ricey or not?

Yes, rice. The strobes wouldn't provide much visibility for you as it would be flashing and bouncing, making it hard to differentiate shadows from objects. It would probably blind people, or cause attract their attention to your stupid looking tails and away from the child walking in front of them.
Bright white lights - yes, functional and safety. Flashing strobes, safety hazard and rice.
If you want to add them for show purposes or to look cool while hanging out in a parking lot asking for cops to come kick you out, I'd put them in the rear bumper somehow. Been a while since I looked at a factory tib's ass... do they have any vents you could hide them in? I keep picturing a Veilside rear
