It’s better to keep it simple and learn the design/development Blender methods.
Once you understand the whole rigging process, you can add a more complex system.

It is looking very good. Just to reinforce what FedPete says there is a good reason to keep the lamp simple, especially the first time you do it. It is possible the animating section of the lamp will get overly complex to sort out if you are new to it. Great if you are up to the challenge and will not get discouraged by the problems, then go for it.

Yes, good point, I was actually thinking about simplifying it, as I was going through the next video.
