You said "good case". My point is that that simply isn't true IMO, unless you classify the official Amazon case not as "good case".
More comfortable to hold, possibly, although that is subjective, but more safer to hold - I do not see a real logical argument for that. A naked kindle is already quite grippy and it is lighter, meaning it is harder to accidently loose the grip.

As said already, when you are reading with it the most vulnerable part is already unprotected. I do not feel a case has a high protection bonus there, especially when combined with the (IMO) higher chance to drop it if it is in a case.

Copy-Paste what I said the very post above the one you quoted:
I rather have more work with getting it in and putting it out of "transport mode" and less bulk when reading.

Dito:
For the "but what if someone bumps into you" scenario I do not see an advantage for the cover because a) if it slips out of your hand chances are high it will land on its unprotected screen in either case (since cover is open) and b) without cover there is a lower chance of it slipping out of your fingers since the naked version is lighter and has (IMO) more grip.
Also - been using mine in public transport for around one year, never had an issue with loosing my grip on the naked version when someone bumped into me. Nowadays I am using the bike, so no reading on the commute for me.
