I've already heard stories of people coming back to the UK from a trip abroad, and UK border staff insisted to see their BRP even though it's acceptable now for it to be digital. I'm assuming it's going to be a right pain in the arse for my wife when she comes back to the UK from visiting family abroad.

It won't stop some officious c*nt at the border, but when they call their supervisor, the latter might be able to recognise enough of the words to look it up and figure it out.
