Slim protective cases for the Steam Deck (leminal.space)

Can anyone recommend a good case for carrying a Steam Deck in a backpack or similar which is less bulky than the factory case and yet protects the device? (I’ve heard the Dbrand Killswitch and JSAUX Modcase recommended, though that was a while ago.)

Do you really need a protective case? I don't ever use my Steam Deck outside. The most dangerous place I used it was with hard flooring at an airport. If I were to drop it, it'd get scuffed at most and already has a screen protector.

I would like to be able to carry my Deck in a backpack full of other things, including on long journeys, hikes, flights and such, without it taking up too much space (as in the factory case) or the risk of it being scratched/damaged by impact from other objects. It may well be robust enough to withstand being jarred against other objects, though it’s better to be safe than sorry.
