The lenses scratch very easily. Is it possible for you to coat the lenses to be resistant? How much would it be?

To be fair, we cannot hardly assume that because there aren't an equal number of posts about DK2 lens scratches, that there aren't many thousands of people suffering from the issue. There are varying degrees of "caring" I will call it, that people possess. Some people care enough to post on forums, others don't care enough at all to even notice scratches. Bottom line is, I don't think the number of posts about it are indicative of any statistic regarding this issue. It's not like for very few people's DK2's, their lenses had the default materials swapped out and replaced with a worse quality one that allows easy scratches.
Just sounds to me like budget was spent elsewhere and lenses are using cheaper material/fabrication process and it results in worse scratching than DK1 lenses.

Guys, we are taking the scratched lens issue very seriously, and looking into what the problem could be now. I don't know what the solution will be yet, but we are on it. In addition, it only appears to be affecting a small handful of people compared to the thousands of kits we sent out without any complaint about the lenses. However, we will continue to investigate.

To be fair, we can hold off on the assumptions until there is an official statement about the lenses.
