All of that is entirely opinion and/or false, but i'd bet you $10k that I could crack/break a slab of granite easier than a slab or quartz. There is a reason granite requires brackets on island overhangs and Quartz doesnt.
They're both great ctops. Granite is harder and doesnt 'burn', Quartz doesnt require sealing. Both can be had from $40/sf to $85+.

I put OSB on my countertops
Yeah we get splinters in our food daily, but we like the natural look of wood that has been processed a bit to look more modern

Yep is much heavier and doesn’t flex like quartz so it is more likely to crack. You can carry a piece of quartz flat and as soon as you lifted the same length of granite flat it would immediately snap in half. It’s the weight and being a more rigid material

I never said you couldnt crack a slab of granite easier. Maybe you could learn to read before you spread bullshite. I did say its easy to seal granite, thats not an opinion. You literally wipe the stuff on wait 5 minutes and wipe it off. If thats difficult to you then you might be a fricking retard. They do make sealants that last more than a year, they just arent the cheap shite you would buy obviously. While you can break granite easier you can scratch quartz easier. You can also burn quartz. None of this is opinion. I also have had a 12" overhang without "brakcets" at my kitchen bar on my granite tops for years without an issue. I'd bet you probably dont have either much less both in your home.
