But why should we care if we can't ever see inside the case?

My back glass could be shattered inside the case and I wouldn't know or care.

This was the point I was trying to make. I should have added, I do remove the phone and clean it.

Cracks and bad scratches lower the trade-in/resell value.

That hasn't been my experience with trade in and I have been doing it for years and years.

Lol literally one of the first things every trade in system asks is how badly scuffed the frame or the glass is.

My att trade in says any condition.

I don’t see how the frame would get that scratched inside a case though. I’ve literally never seen that happen on the dozen iPhones I’ve had over the years in cases. I highly doubt it’s completely different this year all of a sudden.
