Decades ago I saw some numbers comparing light transmission of glass and plexiglass, which is, of course, plastic. Plexiglass transmitted 90 times as much light as glass.
I probably saw that sometime around 1970 so maybe it's no longer true with modern glass. And it might not apply to plastic coatings on Kindle screens. I have no idea. But I wouldn't assume that glass was better with light than plastic. It might not be.
