You just have to be somewhat careful of putting stuff on it.  I really like the granite I put in (given what the piece on the island cost, I had better like it. Don't ask.).

Wife selected (Corian?) when we built this house 22 years ago. It's held
up better than Formica and essentially still looks like new. It gives the
impression of marble but seems to be impervious to stains and rough
treatment.
Granite is great for tombstones, but I can't see the practicality of it
being used for countertops.

The biggest advantage of granite is that it teaches you the precise value
of infinity.  I dropped a plate on the counter and the shards went
everywhere.  I counted them up and it totaled exactly infinity.

I despise rock for a countertop.  Hard maple, or at least formica for
me.
Formica is superior to rock in many ways.  cheaper, lighter, trouble
free,
no maintenance, and a smoother surface to prevent bacteria growth.
Maple
has all that over rock, plus it is a natural antibacterial.

I am glad to see that the rock countertop craze is dying.  Gimme a
shovel
to bury it.

We think that our "blue pearl" granite is even more stunning than
black -
it's black with blue iridescent flakes.
