    You could ask the dealer, but I wouldn't get too wound up over it, I can't see the difference really, and doubt anyone else can.
    BTW; the dealer may make it worse, that's the gamble, they are not exactly chocked full of skillful techs these days, but there are some.

    That looks pretty good. I have seen worse. Nature of the beast, when built on an assembly line. Those folks have very little time to do a task before the next truck is on their ares. They get them within a tolerance. Unlike hand built where they can make it perfect.

    If you care about such things then either get rich and have someone else do it or learn to diy. It’s satisfying to fix things but don’t expect much more than that. Diy is dify. It’s worth it to me in some cases because the item in question can either be made to work properly or sometimes better than as advertised.

    Lots of people whine, wealth has seemingly little to do with it, the causes differ is all. TW has its share. Yes, dify = do it for yourself. Meaning, make yourself happy.
