Covers just trap moisture under them.
I’ve had as many rust out with a cover as without. They certainly don’t help.
Comment on should the BBQ cover be put back on after every use ... or just once at the end of BBQ season

After every use. It’s to keep rain and dust and other detritus off the grill so it’s ready to go when you are. If you only put it on at the end of the season you’re likely to have a rusty grill covered in dirt way quicker

It has its own metal cover I lift up to use

The bbq lid is not a cover, it is part of the cooking apparatus.

It is both, but like anything else exposure to the elements means some kind of replaceable protection is a good idea. Similar to parking a car in a garage or those car covers people use to protect a car parked for a long period of time.

OP calling the BBQ lid a cover is like calling the roof of a car a cover.

That lid is there to trap heat during cooking. Protecting it is important too.
