The reviews both professional and individual for those owning both proton and atom, all speak to how their new go to is not the atom but the proton, although to be fair, they are built for different purposes.
Atom is for idle heat. People complain it warms too much with activity.
Proton is for staying warm yet dumping heat once you're active. That duality is just amazing engineering.
Proton LT is thicker than FL, hence I gave my temperature ratings. FL is plenty warm for me here in 40s to 50s in so cal. Can't imagine wanting a jacket that's any warmer like the Atom for me.

The Proton is very lightweight and thinner, however it has become my favorite lightweight jacket. I absolutely love it. Got mine for less at REI
Correction: I don't have the Proton but the Atom SL, so my comparasion is with the Atom Lt and the Atom SL( Super-light)

I ended up ordering from bergs ski shop which took a month to ship. Quite the hassle and stupendous communications.
Arcteryx direct is safe and legit. But yeah it's still a lot of money
