It's like a cop giving a dangerous driving ticket for someone doing 55 in a 55, during zero visibility conditions.

How could the cop see them doing 55 if the conditions were zero vis?

That's about how far high beams shine, so it's totally acceptable for cops to give people speeding tickets for doing 55 in a 55 at night with high beams on?

High beams definitely do not get 100 meters of usable distance in fog, and in fact will reduce the visibility further.
https://www.weather.gov/safety/fog-driving says:
“
• Use fog lights if you have them.
• Never use your high-beam lights. Using high beam lights causes
glare, making it more difficult for you to see what’s ahead of
you on the road.
