It's like using duct tape vs track tape on your car for a track day: sure, duct tape bonds WAY better & will last WAY longer, but do you want it too??

Probably not.
You have essentially decided that the key element of most protects t type.prpsucts, longevity, is undesirable. Put bluently, you're crazy for most cases. If it's someone's garage queen Corvette or Ferrari, sure, I can get it. Those are cars that are likely to get more washes than drives. But on a daily driver bmw? Nah man, that thing lives outside, I want to touch it as little as possible, I want to wash it as quickly as possible as infrequently as possible and get my protection done once if possible.

I get it, I make your same argument all the time on Corvettes. It doesn't make sense to ceramic coat a garage queen that gets washed and waxed every time it comes out of the garage. But on a daily driven suv... It does make sense.
