    I’m gonna disagree with you about dropping the helmet at all. I also disagree about earplugs, wear them always even with a full-faced helmet if you’re going more than 30mph/40kph.

    I ride every day, and otherwise agree with what you’ve written.

      As long as there’s not a head-shaped mass inside the helmet when it bounces on the garage floor, the foam will be undamaged.

      You’re right about the ear plugs, though. The only reason I know my current helmet is soundproof enough for me is because I have had several which were not.
