[pct-l] clothing question

[AsABat]

I used to carry a much warmer jacket in the Sierra, but in summer only
wore it maybe a half hour in the morning. I went to a fleece (REI
Polartec) jacket, but when I got the Flight found I could save weight
and have a warmer jacket. I very rarely use the jacket in my sleeping
bag (Mountain Hardwear Phantom 32).

I am having some trouble deciding about an insulating layer. Everyone
raves about the WM Flight Jacket. I have no doubts that that sucker is
nice and warm. But I am a warm sleeper and generally warm all the time.
I hardly ever use a 2nd layer while hiking, unless it is cold and
raining. 
 
I will have two baselyer shirts with me, Marmot Precip Jacket and a TNF
Windstopper Vest. I am debating to go with the WM Flash vest, or the
Flight vest. I could imagine the Flight Jacket being simply too warm,
except perhaps in the Sierras (but there is some 2300 other miles of
trails to carry the jacket...).
