Gorilla Glass still breaks, I've seen plenty of shattered Gorilla Glass screens. Ultimately a game system with a scratched screen is still usable, one with a shattered screen -- not so much.
So I think that was the right call design wise. The design of the dock though, personally I think it's bloated because they want to make it seem like it's a "console" and it's doing something when really it's not doing anything really but outputting the HDMI signal. It's 70% wasted space and has an unneccessary plastic "holder" that could scratch the screen if you're not very careful. Unneccessary.
