Removed two downlighters in my daughters flat - she is fed up with the hassle of changing bulbs. The lights removed were in the bathroom and not technically like for like but Zone 2 light fitted on 2.6m high ceiling. My view is that what I have done is safer than what the builder's electrician did. The wire to the first downlighter reaches the new light location so no joint necessary in the loft and can trim back.
The cable insulation on the twin and earth has darkened (presumably with the heat) and the earth sleeving was brittle. 50W Halogen bulbs with inulation over the top (1st floor flat with loft space above).
Now she has four similar downlights in the Kitchen/lounge - should we worry about those?
