The way I figure it, I spent $130+ on my DS lite, and if something happens to the screen, it's obviously better to just replace a $5 screen protector.  I'm one of those extremely paranoid people who protects the DS in any way possible, and yet I still got a tiny scratch on the screen before I got a screen protector.  Sure, the scratch is small and barely noticeable, but still a scratch, and there's always the chance something worse could happen.  Better to just play it safe.

In terms of hardware defects like broken hinges and such, then yes, maybe the original had less problems.  But for everything else, the DS Lite is much better than the original.  Smaller unit, longer stylus, 4 brightness levels (huge improvement here), and better button placement.  Really, the only minor drawback for some people may be that GBA games stick out from the bottom of the DS Lite.
