Is it because the strength of the arch is diminished by the crease? Or because it could channel a falling sharp object into rather than away from one's skull?
That was my first thought. The only way this could be somewhat safe is if the hat aesthetic was a flimsy facade and would crumple at the slightest pressure, and underneath the facade was an actual hard hat.
Unfortunately these buffs don't stack. And the effect only works when constructing large enough engineering feats where people have to look straight up to see the whole thing.

Funny thing is these don't meet ANSI Z89.1 and therefore can't be used in most workplaces

It doesn't have to be safe ... it just has to 'look' safe

Yeah, some people with clipboards and orange vests came by, and they said it's fine.

I agree, but I fear that would require a comically large exterior. Ten gallons, as it were.
