I am not fighting you, pal. I just want to avoid the argument "it's not because you don't need it that bla-bla", of course, I prefer protection but we need to find the right tradeoff, Glueing case, removing and risking to break a glued expensive and serialized screen to reach the battery: nope
You don't get it, first 10% (actually ~6%) is pretty ridiculous and I took the biggest phone at the time that people were buying and using, actually I still have it. :) We could take the Note20, which is 0.830mm thick (0.785 for the 14 Pro Max and as big). Clearly, in this model, the backplate wouldn't have needed to get glued, if +0.020mm is all it needs to get a removal plate, let's got for it. I take extreme high-end smartphone as a ceilling, smartphone too big to my taste but which people buy and use.
*When I'm back from traveling, I will compare my wife's iPhone Pro max and my Note4, to see if this one is unacceptable. :)
