They could have not been cheap and went with gorilla glass. Or not went cheap and made a low-quality plastic dock. Or not went cheap and allow people to use USB-C to HDMI adapters which are far cheaper for consumers than the dock. I am enjoying my Switch as a portable device, but there seems to be a growing trend with a lot of head-scratching corner-cutting cheap moves by Nintendo in the design of this whole thing. I'm leaning towards returning mine and watching for both more software and what I consider a pretty obvious hardware redesign in the dock and other aspects of the system soon enough.

i think its just a poor design choice on nintendo's part, considering the motherboard in the dock is not even 30% of the entire dock size, so the next iteration will be heavily focuced on dock. coz right now with a simple glass protector this issue can be curbed. 

Why should have to put a screen protector to protect the sysetm against a plastic flap that doesn't need to be there in the first place? If there was a functional reason for it, ok, but there isn't. It's just there to have a toaster design layout. Just use the design I showed in the OP, problem solved. Dock/undock to your hearts content, no worry about scratching.
