What's holding me back is that I'm worried the fold line would be too distracting, or would get worse over time.

I also love my s23 pen

That's what I thought originally, but the fold is not noticeable at all when you look square at it, as far as how it feels to move your finger over it, it feels like a small tactile bump. Feels nice actually. I use a membrane screen protector and foldable case with no issues, over the last year there has been no degradation of the "crease" or the folding mechanism.
