Mathew as for the leather Corinthian I had the newlly enfranchised masses of various cities during 550 to 490 BC in mind.
Yes the pilos was adopted partly because it was cheaper and easier to make.
As for the "scaled" helmyt, asume that a less ecomicaly developed Locrian or Aianian of 600 B.C had some scales and a small bronze sheet only. Wouldn't he take some steps to protect his head?
Kind regards
