I put gaffing tape on mine for grip since we have to key card in and out of doors on the floors of our non-shared office. I kept dropping a new-ish 15” they gave me as I often had to juggle things while getting in and out of heavily sprung doors. IT hates it but they hate dented aluminum cases more.

Why do you walk around with your laptop in your hands? For meetings?

Even if it's a company issued laptop, what it's to IT whether you have stickers/tape or not?
Makes it harder to re-issue it out once you have left.
Aha. For shorter term employment makes sense. Usually in these hear parts the laptop will be deprecated/replaced before the employee (e.g. after 4-5 or so years).

Yup. Lots and lots of meetings.

No idea.
