Yes, i was referring to the rear screen. I've seen my friend getting his screen scratched with long use. Not so sure, but just a thought of getting one.
Now that you've mentioned the lens protector i'm thinking about how useful would it be; i mean when you are not using it, the camera would be in a strong case. Then what's the point of getting one?

I think that the point is that if there is a sharp impact on your mostly cloth case (say, if you fell against the corner of a table or if a runaway cart ran into you), then the lens cap might protect the blades.

There was a suggestion that a rigid plastic card in the front pocket might serve the same function.

I'm still undecided on that one (removing the lens cap and putting it back on is one more annoyance that I currently don't live with with my s90).

On a different note: would you hand your G7XmII to a stranger to ask them to take a picture of your group (too big for a selfie)? I do that all the time with my s90 but it wasn't nearly as expensive or as heavy/delicate...

Got your point.
I just quite didnt understand what you were trying to highlight in the last paragraph!

Check this lens cap as well:

I guess it should fit as well
