First of all, while it was rumored Face ID on the new 18's would be under screen, it was a rumor and Apple never suggested in the Event that Face ID is different on the new phones. In other words, the rumor didn't become reality, so screen protectors will work the same on the iPhone 18 Pro/Pro Max just as they did on iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max.

This is completely incorrect. The Face ID sensor was moved to the top left of the phone, under the display. This causes issues with matte screen protectors, as noted in Dave2D’s review of the iPhone 18 Pro. https://youtu.be/eHYaESEzFHc?is=fxyk1lWI5_grup_g

Nobody was talking about matte protectors. As I said Apple are selling clear ones for the 18.
Maybe when you've put in 16 years here you can make these judgements of others, but you would still face moderation. .
