Partially by being so large there's no room for anything ELSE in the same
pocket to damage it! ;)

The Treo is bigger.

Thinner, anyway. I wouldn't really consider the Treo very "pocketable" either.

Look, I'm a fan of "big" phones. Face it- the iPhone is a BIG phone, to accomodate it's big display. That's an ADVANTAGE in my view- not a disadvantage. I carry a brick myself- my HTC Wizard is nearly an inch thick- well over an inch if I slap the extended battery pack on it. However, since my first phone was an old analog Radio Shack (Nokia) handheld patterned after the Motorola Ultra Classic that I bought in the early 90's, (it was larger than a VHS tape, not even including the six-inch rubber antenna!) it's hard for me to consider any modern phone "big" or "heavy" after using some of the early analog handhelds I've lugged around! ;)
