I just ordered some third-party replacement tips for Apple Pencil. They are supposed to add enough friction to make it more 'paper like' (and quiet) without any screen protector. We'll see if they help.

That said, I'm not much for handwritten notes, which is why I don't have much interest in Scribe.

And as a reading device, I think it is too big to be of value as a reading device that I'd use regularly. I don't even read on iPads larger than my iPad mini (apart from graphic novels). It's even larger than most of the print books I read back in the olden days. At the type size I prefer, it makes the lines of text too long to parse comfortably (and Kindles don't allow margin adjustment to make them shorter).

Scribe does not currently support 2 columns in Landscape view, which might make it more attractive for reading, but then might be more difficult to hold.
