It depends where you are. Here in California, the highway speeds are usually 80mph+ and you maintain that speed for many miles. When bugs hit your car at that speed, it most definitely will pit your paint and scar. And Rocks? Good luck! I hope you have a lot of touch up paint handy. Maybe just respray the car every few years? PPF is not perfect but it 100% is better than no PPF.
Bugs definitely do not pit and scar ppf - films self heal. Occasionally you will get a rock that penetrates... but after I peel off the clear bra, most of these come out. They penetrated the film but it didn't damage the paint. Film is soft and it cushions impacts. Paint is hard and it chips instantly. As for stains? That is not a problem with the new films they have now with embedded ceramic coatings. That's an old video.
