Good point. That covers most situations. I'm thinking of the scenario where I take a break from reading and put the reader down on my lap, front cover down and elastic not fastened. I might then absentmindedly open the back cover to resume reading, as if it were a p-book (half-century-old reading habits die hard). I know, the short answer is "Don't do that", but I wouldn't want to have to think too hard about it. After all, I bought the cover to protect the Kindle. I don't want to have to handle it as if it were a ticking bomb.
I'm not getting lathered up about it, though. I'll just wait and see how it works in practice.
