I have gone without screen protectors for a 4 and a 6. The glass now is different than back in the 2010's. I know it is a big ask/risk and highly dependant on your use case and lifestyle, but you may find that the protector is not actually doing anything any more. All of us are different in how roughly we use phones. I am in the habit of always keeping items in certain pockets, like my front left is always only for my phone, and I have limited physical mobility, so I am not very hard on devices. YEMV
Yeah, glass technology is definitely getting better. But I can never unsee even mirco-scratches, and I don't tend to use a case, so I just take comfort in a screen protector.
I didn't hate the liquid application of screen protectors on curved screens either...it was kinda cool to set those up (even though the fumes were kinda bad).
