As you point out I adjust layers underneath as the weather dictates. These days just a jersey does the job. The only problem is over dressing, you can overheat and sweat up a storm if you overdo it.
I have a red and a hi-vis version. They both have reflective elements. The hi vis is the one I lean towards. Many times have observed it grabbing drivers' attention.
This might be the year that I too do more outdoor riding even as the temps take the downward trend. I like that the jacket you provided the link to has pockets just like my jerseys do. Do most cycling specific jackets have the pockets. Is that something that most cycling specific jackets have in common? I've not done a whole lot of colder weather cycling, so it's not something I would have noticed with other cyclists.
