Completely agree.
I sweat
very easily, and that used to be a factor in me riding without a helmet (15+ years ago). I have Bell
Ghisallo helmet, I bought for about $80, and a Giro
Atmos I just picked-up for $120 at Performance. The
Atmos is the
much better ventilated helmet of the two, and it's a bit lighter. Yes, the
Atmos was worth the additional $40--no question.
