Firstly, my condolences to his family and all his fans.
Regarding JS comments, I believe him to one of the geatest drivers alive and many drivers alive today owe that fact to his pursuit of safety.
As a minor racer myself I admire the guts and bravery of yesteryear, I believe that given the choice they'd all have protected themselves with today's kit.
IMHO Open face helmets are more comfortable, especially when the car is stationary, and finding a suitable full-face helmet can take time....
..BUT I would never anythingelse and I race in a tin-top (Grp1 1982 RX7).
