I wouldn't have thought to get a cover for a KA1.

OTOH from what I remember of the original Kobo Aura that seemed to have a soft screen layer worth protecting...

I'd say it depends entirely on the device.
The light layer is different than the screen. The light layer is more prone to scratches. So yes, you should have a cover when it goes out and about.
