I’ve heard this “fact” being repeated for a very long time and I don’t buy it. A big expensive camera looks big and expensive regardless of what strap you have on it.

You definitely want to go for a bag that doesn’t scream “cameras”.
That said, both myself and they guy I share a studio with have multiple Peli cases with camera and lighting gear in them, which have stickers on the outside that indicate what’s inside. We came to the conclusion that a Peli usually has something worth nicking inside anyway and it’s more useful for us or an assistant (who might be on their first job with you) to know what’s inside without having to go searching. Besides the chances of someone being able to outrun you while lugging a massive flight case are pretty small anyway!
