The story of my life:
Assembler: “Something isn’t working on the machine you designed.”

We’re talking about sidewalks. It’s not at all unreasonable to take a look and decide it’s OK. There is no other piece with which it needs to interact precisely — shoes and tires are made of flexible materials for a reason.
Besides, it looks worse with a few random panels replaced. They should at least also fix the actual problems while they’re fixing the technical deviations.
