My current 2021 MBP has a scratch on the screen even though I've been extremely careful with it. If I replace it with a brand new 2022 MBP, what are the chances of ever getting a scratch on it? Are the odds in my favor?

I'd reckon that the odds are not good.
Best to carry on with what you have for now.

When I bought the MBP, I was under the impression that a glass screen was pretty my scratch free, except when coming in contact with sharp diamonds. Nobody told about the vulnerable anti-reflective coating.
I highly doubt we'll see any new MBPs this year. Given the delays in shipping orders this years and huge lead times...
The sensitivity of the new screens is scary. My 2009 MBP, on it's second screen (cable/ hinge short), I could and do use much elbow grease to clean. I recall paying AUD$ 50 to have the matt display 13 odd years ago.
