Totally, I guess the assumption is that helmets usually have eye protection, which is not necessarily the case. The argument by the instructor was that it’s dumb, and both, a helmet and eye protection should be required in case your helmet doesn’t protect the eyes. The idea was that in case you ride without a helmet you only endanger yourself, whereas without eye protection you endanger others as well.
