Light bleed around rubber seal on MacBook Pro 13" 2019

Had my MacBook Pro repaired twice by Apple, relating to different issues, one regarding marks appearing on the screen. They've replaced the screen, however I have noticed that light bleeds around the rubber seal on the screen, from what looks like a gap between the seal and the glass.


Is this an issue that warrants a repair/ replacement or am I just being awkward? Never had this problem before my screen was replaced.
