Re the screen rubbing on the keyboard, I've really enjoyed using the Ghostblanket from UPPERCASE, which is just a small microfibery-kinda liner meant to fit on top of the keyboard when it's closed. Also good for keeping finger oils off the screen.
Dunno how that interacts with the nano texture, but I feel like it's made my MacBook screens last a decent bit longer. There's other brands that also make these kinds of cloths, but Apple lowered the clearance between the keyboard and screen after around the 2016 MacBook? So the old brand I was using stopped fitting.
Products like these make me feel like a grandma wrapping her remote in plastic.
It's interesting to learn MBs also have this. I think my Framework (13) is the first laptop where I noticed such scratches, while my cheaper HP did not have it. Or is it lesser on glossy screens?
I think it's more prevalent on thin laptops? because the screen clearance is lower, and they're laptops that tend to be in transit more; pressure pushing the two sides together in backpack or when picking it up in one hand.
