Unpopular opinion: Glass side panels are overrated for actual builds

I stopped by a LAN party in Denver last month and saw three guys with shattered tempered glass panels from just normal desk bumps. Give me a solid steel side panel any day, it weighs more but at least I'm not cleaning up shards after a minor accident. Has anyone else ditched the glass for something more practical?

My buddy knocked his desk and his whole glass panel just exploded.

Used to be all about that glass life until my roommate's panel exploded while he was just plugging in a USB. Now I'm team solid steel all the way, that extra weight is worth not having to vacuum up tiny glass pieces. It's just way more practical for real world use where stuff actually gets bumped.
