By the logic that the kuva is what "powers" the damage immunity, the operators who consumed the kuva should potentially carry a portion of this effect while wielding this weapon.

Alternatively, if it is, again, the source of the protection, then every operator/tenno in the universe is an idiot for not making use of this fact and slapping some on there or harvesting it from their weapons. Also makes the operator/tenno look really, really dumb for removing the kuva from the scepter they got, right after learning of the weapons' damage immunity properties, that's like finding [insert mythical weapon here] and melting it down to make a mundane spoon, whoopse.

There are many bosses whom have 100% damage immunity, most of them are based around gimmicks, like shooting a weak spot when exposed, causing an enemy to hurt themselves, or otherwise "cutscene armor". The kuva guardians are no different, but DE's mistake here is that lore-wise, it's their weapons that give them immunity, and you being unable to benefit from the same immunity despite wielding the same weapons was an option DE should never have choose to make. Even if the craftable "variant" was described as "crafted after the weapons wielded by the Kuva Guardians...", it would still be a fault in the lore since again, the unbroken staff was in your hands, why not make the real thing, and/or why not take the ones they use, especially since you literally rip it out of their hands when you kill them...

I'm quite suprised that there's no mention of something like "unlike the kuva guardians whom are invinicble while wielding this weapon, it will not grant you any defensive benifits" on this page though, was the whole reason I came here to check.
