I suspect that Garmin and
others are aware of such problems and settled on the most reasonable
protection solution that doesn't involve complex and expensive

Various vendors offer waterproof "dry bags".

These were intended for cell phones work well for hand-held GPS
receivers. Do NOT buy the bags with radiation shields, IR blocking or
reflective plastic. These will block the signal from the satellites
to the GPS.
How to mount the Garmin Edge 830 in a bag on a bicycle might be a
challenge. Rubber bands, elastic bands or packing tape will work, but
are rather ugly.
