While that is true, the screen protectors are significantly less flexible than the glass screen.
If you hold something even a little firmly against your phone, you will crack the glass screen protector. Your phones screen would not and does not crack.
I’ve cracked quite a few screen protectors that way.
The real answer is stop buying expensive ones. Buy the $9 for 3 from Amazon and replace every couple of months when they crack.
The reason they crack is that screen protectors tout their scratch resistance, and hardness, which comes at the expense of flexibility. Being hard and being brittle tend to go hand in hand.
I wouldn’t care if they scratched more and cracked less, I’m happy to spend $3 every 2-3 months either way.
I bought an Ailun 2 pack of glass screen protectors May 2021 for $9 to put on my iPhone, which is in my pocket every day while I work around the farm. The first one I put on hasn't cracked yet.
