This is a good point, and I know at least one member on here did have that happen - fortunately like you say, the plastic screws are sacrificial and there is no serious damage to either part...
That said, my own screen is held on with Dzus fasteners, and my bike hit the deck many times on the way to Dakar (and in the US with the stock screws) and it was never an issue... maybe I was just lucky?!
