Always wondered that myself. Thought it was a dice roll at best that it didn't cause more harm than what damage you may or may not get along the way. To me, a rock chip or 2 is much better than peeling clear coat off. Plus, like Rusty said, mine already has a couple of chips, but meh...I basically DD it, so it's a part of life.

my guess as to why; we drove 8 hours in pouring rain which soaked the tape followed by post-arrival 85 degree sun baking that wet tape for half a day. next morning taking the tape off we saw the damage. so again, it's probably a rare occurrence. i will say i did it once to get my car tuned in MD only a 4-4.5 hour drive and the time to tape the car not worth it in my mind lol
