Wears out Apple Pencil

I've had my iPad for about two weeks now. I've been using it for drawing and note taking since I was in art school. But this screen protector ground my Apple Pencil tip down to metal in less than two weeks. I put on a replacement tip two days ago and it's already showing signs of wear. So if you use your pen sparingly this is a good option, but I wouldn't recommend it for heavy use. It also picks up dirt and grease from your hands very quickly, so it needs frequent cleaning, and the pencil leaves marks as a result, leading you to think it's badly scratched. This makes the screen a bit grainy, but since I put it on straight out of the box, it didn't bother me too much. Unfortunately, I'm in the process of removing it due to damage to my Apple Pencil, so I wasted the $14 I spent on it. I've attached some photos of my nib's wear after two days, the old nib and what the screen looks like with the protective layer on it. TLDR: Works, but quickly destroys Apple Pencil tips.
