Look, everyone is built differently.
If you're more like a fire plug, with no neck, and no gap between your chest protector and your mask, you're fine. You're probably not able lean over much (think Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down) so your neck is probably ok without a protector.
The rest of us feel a bit safer with one. I know that the two I've take there would have really done a lot of damage. It's also the same number I've taken off my cup in the last seven years. And I'm not rolling without either.
