My first helmet was an open face AGV my Dad gave me, with a smoked faceplate. I thought it was dorky then, but never had any problems with it and debris.
Last week on my way home down Titirangi Rd was wearing my full HJC just open a tiny crack - the way I always ride - and then a frickin' bee came into the crack - in fact struggled in - and then went a bit mental. Luckily it didn't sting me, and I had the situation under control. I was doing 50kph, and as I see it, on the flat on that straight rd I could probably achieve my bike's max, 235kph. Therefore according to the law of SM, I still had 79% in reserve. This buffer allowed me to ride safely and still deal with the bee, not bin it and also to keep my licence. Easy.
Still, proves the full face no better or worse than open for bees - in my experience.

Its a well known fact that when a bee flies into your crack that things usually get interesting.
I had a bee in my crack once...
I could see him pinned by air pressure in the corner of my vision and I deferred corrective action believing he was wedged in my outer crack. Things changed rapidly when he unwedged and walked across the inside of my visor midway through the twisties north of Whitianga.
