I pretty much agree with your analysis. The best prevention is to be vigilant, though I have unfortunately had the opportunity to give helmets a serious test on 2 occasions.
Regarding the Headkayse (soft) helmet, I have many questions, including the longevity of the materials. That notwithstanding, I have been sufficiently intrigued to order one and will report back after I have used it for a short while.
Its been a while since you said you would report back - did the helmet fail?
I am afraid it has not yet been delivered. The manufacturer currently predicts delivery by April, but the date keeps shifting. I will report as soon as I can.

Thanks - I've just been reading about it on their website and that prompted me to do a search on here to see if anyone had any real-world experience of them. Look forward to hearing yours.
