Yep, we're including a plastic screen protector in between the screen and the case. The screen protector has gotten a bit scratched on Robin's tangara, who tends to keep it loose in a backpack. Mine has been fine so far in my pocket (not with my keys or anything particularly likely to scratch tho), and in an generic electronics carry case I keep it in when I'm not using it. I personally like using a case to store it with my earphones and usb-c cable, and a case would help with the screen protector staying pristine for longer, but there isn't any risk of the screen itself getting scratched in that way.

Thanks. That feels like the best answer I could have hoped for. I'm fine with being careful or getting a few scratches on a screen protector. And also glad not to have to worry too much about my keys (or whatever) poking a hole in the screen itself.
