I think the fiamma roof light can be fitted anywhere in the roof. It doesn't require a timber frame in the roof, hence lots of silicon and 20 screws into the thin aluminium sheet. If you have an existing opening with a timber frame already there, you may be ok with fewer screws.
Fiamma products are generally very good quality and well designed. I would go with their recommendation of 20, and apply plenty of silicon where specified to make sure it is kept watertight.
