If it is flaw, then, if you had AppleCare+ on it, then Apple would have performed a recall, and have recommend it while discussing this with them. Being that was not mentioned by Apple, they are charing you this money. So, get the new screen. Take this as a learning experience, knowing to get AppleCare+ with a Mac purchase.
