I think, they should be allowed, but if sunglasses is sort of a stereotypical thing / part of a poker player image to wear at the poker table, hoodies is 50-50, then scarfs would definitely give away that the person wearing them is some online, at very least, wanna be poker pro, as I don't think anyone would wear scarfs indoors to a poker table aside from them. Although I would normally think that people would rather like to mislead their opponents about their skill level, so scarfs definitely don't serve this purpose, because they just scream online pro, but some people still prefer to wear them, so the reason behind this must be solid. Well, some people say that one can see, and read, and interpret your breathing and pulsation of the veins. I don't think that banning this would help anyone significantly, because one has to be a seasoned poker pro to read people's breathing and veins. I agree though, that hiding your neck and a half of your face after you've made a bet OR sitting there in your hoodie, which is covering everything, with your sunglasses on does look silly and robotic. So maybe if ban would come, it would be rather for the table atmosphere to look more like a humans' interaction and gathering, rather than that of emotionless droids :)
