The more I think about it their reasoning makes zero sense. Are they saying because the helmet is an inanimate object it doesn’t translate to the nightmare inspired smoke? Well then the same could be said for all the rogue’s weapons and they’re included.
I think the actual reason is you can’t do a clear dome in smoke form without it sticking out like a sore thumb. The only way it’d fit with the visual concept would be to elimainate it being clear and that would look even worse because it’d obscure that excellent face sculpt.
Ultimately this is why the smoke version doesn’t work for me. It’s a cool idea and I love the muted look of the rogues as it makes Batman the clear centerpiece but bottom line is Mr. Freeze just doesn’t mesh with the concept. I think a better option would’ve been to replace Freeze with The Riddler on this variant. It definitely would’ve made the decision of which piece to go with a lot tougher.
