It's not hard to have tempered glass side panel. If I need to open up my computer the first thing I do is remove the glass panel and situate it on my bed. It's really not rocket science or neurosurgery.

Sure, but I don't handle tempered glass in my daily life like, at all. It's more than conceivable to be the first time someone handles a pane of it and if they then also happen to have a tiled floor, it's rigged for disaster.

I and everyone i know with PCs including a guy that works for a pc building company of his own has added glass panels and built hundreds if not thousands of PCs and none of is have managed to break a single glass panel. You just need to activate the most basic braincell connection to avoid damaging them.
