But it's also a sign about Apple not doing a good wrt. making their premium products robust.
With many other Laptops in that price range you would either have to use a very fat cover or apply a amount of pressure which might damage your laptop anyway. I just tried it (carefully) with my laptop and the screen has enough "play"/"flex" to handle it just fine.
PS:
Fun fact as far as I remember a number of webcams with LED indicator allow (or did allow in the past) anyone using the camera
to switch off the indicator without stopping using the camera...

While this is still true for many laptops, it hasn't been true for MBP for at least the past 5 years (cannot be bothered to find the exact year), even if someone has full root access to the machine. I say that, because the camera LED on MBPs these days is hardware activated, not software. So if the camera is active on hardware level, the LED indicator will go green, no matter what.
