    What's the tipping point where there's so few rows it's not worth it?

    0.

    Every table should have a clustered index unless you have a good reason otherwise (low row count is not a good reason)

    but the reality is that there is a point below which a Clustered Index is more of an overhead than a help.

    No, there isn't.
