Then the plants would have no water and die.

It's not ideal, but I'd say the reason they require equivalent pricing is, so that people don't just use Steam as a marketing platform, while diverting all sales to their personal website where they sell the game for $X cheaper.

Driving forwards and driving backwards are separate skills that both require practice, but one is not harder than the other (only applicable at slow speeds).

This is incorrect. The way the Monty Hall problem is formulated means staying at the current door has 1/3 chance of winning, and switching gives you 2/3 chance. Flipping a coin doesn't change anything. I'm not going to give a long explanation on why this is true since there are plenty other explanations in other comments already.

This is a common misconception that switching is better because it improves your chances from 1/3 to 1/2, whereas it actually increases to 2/3.

These are all different options on the sliding scale of portability vs usability/screen size. Folding phones lie between a slab phone and tablets on this scale. I'd say slab phones > folding phones > tablets > laptops > desktops etc... You also of course have further subdivisions such as the iPad mini vs the iPad.

This is like the people saying, at the launch of the iPad, that tablets would fail because laptops exist.

Do you really need a screen protector if the main screen is only ever exposed when you're actively using it? I'd thought the main point of screen protectors is to prevent scratching against pocket fabric or keys, or accidental drops. Foldables also seem pretty fragile that dropping it is a game over regardless of a screen protector.
