It does though. Installing a matte screen protector was one of the very first things I did after I got it.
Put a matte screen protector on my iPad a few years ago to cut down on the glare and that was it, everything had to be that way from then on.
Downside is you do lose some image crispness but it's so very worth it for the huge reduction in glare.
Also matte protectors aren't nearly as popular so there's a lot smaller selection to chose from.
Maybe for some models? IDK I haven't seen one but I've noticed there is a much smaller selection of matte protectors in general vs glossy.
I don't think there's any reason they can't.
