Soft paint is a trend across the auto industry. We can thank the EPA for it (in the US) and since the US is a pretty large market share for most auto-makers, they just apply the same levels of requirements to anywhere else they sell vehicles.

Also, this car sits LOW to the ground, where rocks can easily bounce up and hit pretty parts, especially if you use shorter following distances.

A good coat or two of wax, and maintaining said wax, will protect in most instances of animal droppings. That said, worst case, you take it to a body shop who will clean, wet-sand and shoot clear over it, then you have a better (harder) clear over it anyway. As for rocks, there's nothing you can do about that. Even a clear-bra won't protect against everything...
