Lol. Outdoor chandeliers do exist. They create a warm and inviting atmosphere like the would do if used indoors. Creates a focal point, more or less. A recessed/down light is more general or task focused, however. Doesn't give much visual impact . . . Not saying you don't know this, just saying that implementing it like so is more common than you think.
Did y'all see the chandelier on the outside of the outdoor double doors? Wtf kinda choice was that, just don't add one of its not necessary.
