I didn't think anyone would consider the thing that comes with it a screen protector that is to be used while operating the device.? I always thought it was just there to protect it from scratches during manufacture, like the stuck on plastic sheet pieces that most electronic devices come with when new.
Then again, to each his own...? I remember a childhood friend, Stanley Hurwitz, whose mother apparently cherished her JC Penny family room and living room furniture so greatly that she encased every square inch of the whole set in custom made protective plastic slip covers.? Whenever one would get up from the furniture, it was a gamble as to whether or not skin would remain stuck to the plastic.? Of course, those hot summers always had us sitting on the floor instead because it just wasn't worth it.? Their home even included a gaudy plastic carpet runner going up the shag carpeted stairs and down the matching main hallway.? We kids always joked with Stan that his mom would encase their whole home in Lucite if she could figure out how.? By our teenage years all the furniture plastic gave the furniture this disgusting yellow hue, and the carpet runners had chipped and turned opaque white, and was quite gooey to the touch.? I imagine the carpet got ruined from the runners worse than it ever would have been from foot traffic.
And my mother-in-law, who left that stuck on plastic sheet attached to all of the stainless steel on her new refrigerator.? Her reasoning was that it would make the refrigerator easier to clean since she only had to clean the plastic.? SMH.? Of course, it looks terrible now, three years later... but hey, at least that stainless steel underneath the film will look great for someone one day when the next people who own it painstakingly remove the deteriorated plastic sheeting that's going to be, by then, stuck on like glue!
