i am working for a big TV station and almost all of our editors use microfiber cloths to protect the screens of their 16'' MBPs from key imprints when closed.
On the other hand I talked to an Apple technician about this and he claimed that this is not necessary anymore since the screen coating supposedly got better over the years. He even argued that it is counter-productive since the microfiber cloth reduces the space between keyboard and screen when closed and therefore increases contact.
I myself us a Torro microfiber on my 13'' M1 MBP and I discovered that besides the cloth I do find key imprints on the screen when the MBP was not in use for some time - even when I didn't pack it in a backpack or so.
What's your experience on this? Still necessary or a relic from an era long ago. THX for your expertise.
