WRT experience, I've never damaged a PDA or reader by dropping one. The damage has usually come about either through inadvertent bending forces when being carried, or from inherent manufacturing defects (some HP/HTC PDAs had problems with this).
Since I work in a factory, I used Al Rhinoskin covers for my PDAs at work. One survived being dropped on the toe of my safety shoe, at the same time my foot moved, resulting in it being punted against a desk. No damage. Al cases are good things. My smartphone, alas won't fit in an Al case, so I use a padded cloth one.

[1] I assume you mean a bifold cover, like a wallet or book cover.

You are way off here. A drop can possibly break the screen of an eink reader. So yes, a cover is a good thing to have. Sure, the case/sleeve may protect your reader while carrying it around, but then you have no protection when you've taken the reader from the case/sleeve. So do you care so little about your reader that you are willing to risk damaging the screen because you wrongly assume that a case/sleeve is all you need?
The follow is a proper cover....
