My husband says that the enamel used on our new pans (le creuset) cannot realistically be damaged by gentle contact with metal utensils because enamel is not that fragile.
I’ve read from a lot of different sources that metal utensils absolutely do scratch the enamel, even with a light touch, but I’ve never seen an explanation as to HOW they do this.

Enamel can be scratched. But, scratched doesn’t necessarily mean damaged. And, I doubt it is going to be due to a “light touch”
Keep in mind – when looking for information like this online, you’re going to find people who are super-extremely over cautious with their stuff. So “damage” to them will be “Yeah, if you hold it just like this, and turn your head, you can just barely see a tiny scratch”
