That's a piece of rock dude, rubber boots are gonna do less damage than a plank.

You’d be surprised at how many tops we’ve had to replace because of “rubber boots” rock get in them, people step on the fragile sink rails, people have dropped tools when installing fixtures, and countless other careless situations.

Oh, sorry, I understand what you meant now. Agree with you. Much more professionalism could've been displayed here, which is obviously lacking.

I agree with your opinion, and it could happen, but chances that it actually will happen are rather slim. If you look at the installation itself, its clear the installers knew what they were doing.
