Yeah that just seems like common sense. Dunno why people use those hard plastic covers that prevent the lid from closing properly and put all the pressure on one part of the LCD.

Because people don't trust the activity LED.

Has Apple fixed the issue? Most likely. But do you trust Apple completely? Would a $0.50 piece of plastic solve that trust issue?

Sure but you can just use a 0.1mm sticker. 4 thou is a lot for a camera cover unless it's one of those plastic ones with the sliding window
I'm guessing the sliding thing is what most people use. People do use their cameras, but want to be sure it's off when it's off.
