Thats what I am basing my bias for lights instead of reflectors. Don't get me wrong, I will still wear a hi-vis vest or jacket, but I won't be focusing on reflective material much further from that.

And yea, a helmet really doesn't do much good, but I haven't found much conclusive evidence for or against. If there was a paper detailing how they were harmful I would not wear one.
Don't disregard reflective clothing, I have a descente cycling jacket with reflective fabric on the back and arms, and it is highly visible pretty much always. If you have any specific questions feel free to PM me, I'd be happy to help
