Look at ppf the same reason you use a phone case. Silicone ppf is much more resistant to stone chips and scratches than paint clearcoat, and in some cases can self heal where paint cannot.

There's not a "high chance" the paint will come off if the ppf is removed. There are several super safe ways to remove it, especially if you bring it to a good shop. Heck I've ripped off old ppf from hoods and bumpers without any heat at all (not recommended) and the paint was perfect underneath.
