Given it has a matte finish for writing, which is super cool, but what about wear and tear?

Writing tactility is provided by friction from the matte surface, wouldn't this wear down or scratch over time? If so is the front "glass" bonded to the display, can it be replaced or refurbished?

Super freaking cool tho, was a sad day when pebble died (sharp MiP display) and I've always wanted to play with epaper some more, such a shame eink basically tried to corner the industry for so long. Do you ever intend to sell display modules using this tech for makers and the like?
