Is it safe to use a keyboard protector on a 2015 13" retina display macbook pro? I heard it damages the screen. Should I use a screen protector?

Macbook air 2018 retina display keyboard cover Does a screen protector keep the screen from being damaged by a keyboard top case? According to some saying, the screen could be damaged by any accessory between the keyboard and screen because there is a coating on the screen. Then anything between the keyboard and screen would hurt the coating the leave a scratch on the screen. So if I put a protector onto the screen, does it protect the coating from being hurt? Or does the back-adhesive protector itself hurt the coating (because it is adhesive)? This was asked before. I’m wondering if the question was ever answered.

Hi,

I'm using silicon keyboard protector, both MacBook Pro and MacBook Air without problem, no screen damage.
