M2 MacBook Air scores higher on Windows 11 GeekBench than pricier Dell laptop

It's trivial and cheap to apply a matte screen protector if that's your preference.

But you can't convert a matte screen to glossy.

Also, matte doesn't necessarily translate to more legible outdoors either. Matte removes reflections by reducing contrast which has its own drawbacks.

Not on the new macbooks. You will break your display over time. The distance between screen and keyboard when closed is 0.1mm

If we keep talking about quality, you lose much more clarity/contrast by some 3rd party sticked matte layer than what manufacturer actually puts into screen itself. But I guess anything is better than cheap looking glossy screen intended for any serious work.

I would love to get a recommendation of a good glossy screen matte-er.
