Idk, I’ve had the fold 4 for since launch, took the internal protector off as soon as it started peeling in the center and it’s been absolutely fine. I use my stylus rarely unfortunately but it hasn’t obviously scratched the screen at all (I am a bit ocd about those things and would have likely noticed)
I had the fold 2 before that and similarly took the screen protector off within a few months and didn’t run into what you’re describing either. I DID have the hinge break where it wouldn’t open flat anymore but that was absolutely from my dropping it onto cement lol. When I swapped it for the 4 they still gave me the good condition value.

Nice, sounds like removing that screen protector is the move. Which makes me wonder why they put it on there if it only causes problems later.
