Your complaint shows a complete lack of respect for the manufacturer’s profit margins. They probably save a couple bucks per vehicle by ~~skimping on materials~~ optimizing paint dispersion.

? Bought a new recently seems pretty scratch-proof. Who gave you this info?
Might be certain manufacturers are worse offenders. I found out first hand. And then gained confirmation when calling a couple places for estimates for paint repair.
Make?
2024 Subaru
I have a 2022 OBW. Paint is not its strongest quality, that's for sure.
I have a 15 year old Subaru with the same problem. And even when we bought the car new it was a well known issue with Subaru. Welcome to being a Subaru owner.
Used to have a Hyundai. Paint was coming off as early as 50k. She was missing paint entirely in spots at 175k.
Was it a white Elantra? Ours did the same and when we researched it, we found out that there was a recall and that they would repaint it for free.
Except that the recall offer expired BEFORE we bought the car.
It was a Blue Veloster
Thin layers allow for bending without cracking the paint.
2 thin coats? Was the worker's name Duncan Rhodes? Make sure you apply Nuln Oil before you seal.
Have you considered wrapping the car?
It goes in next week for a full PPF wrap, sans roof. And then ceramic treatment on top.
