long story short, thrifted a 13" Lenovo Yoga 2 pro. i7, 256gb SSD, 8gb RAM, cant complain for $.99/lb lmao. It works beautifully, only issue is the massive crack on the digitizer. Now seeing as how i couldn't care less about using the touch functionality, nor do I want to justify replacing it to myself, is it possible to just remove the digitizer, leaving the display nekkid and have no real issues? Maybe apply a glass screen protector. Possibly retarded question, I know, but the display underneath is beautiful and the only thing holding it back are the giant cracks on the glass. ty /g/entlemen
(also this is my first laptop since my T520 died and im still bitter ;~;)

the outer screen is there because its thicker and designed to take abuse. the inner lcd will collect scratches very easily without it.
im not familiar with that particular model but id search ebay/amazon for replacement parts and youtube for DYI instructions.

Understood but I'm just wondering if the absence of it will cause havoc or could i hypothetically remove it and use the laptop with no issue

after some research on that particular model, I would say no. looks like the whole thing is glued and it would be a very involved process to seperate them. you could try it with a hair dryer or heat gun if you have one though.
I would just buy a new screen.
