It is advised to use a screen protector on Onyx Boox Note, which has soft flexible screen, and scratches were reported after using its pen.
I used the pen some, not much, on Note without any protector - and no scratches.
All the other readers have glass screens and do not require protector.
Although... The top-most layer is the anti-reflective (light diffusion) layer which is not glass but PMMA. But it is not as soft as the Note's screen. It is advertised as "scratch-resistant".
Plus, you could replace the tip of the pen with a softer one.
A set of five tips is sold separately: "BOOX Marker Tips. Wacom Stylus Nibs"
The product description on ereader.store says they are softer than the original tip, and therefore less likely to scratch the screen:
"New softer and less slippery tip for best possible writing experience."
And again:
"Those replacement tips are softer than originally supplied in the Wacom styluses".
