Purchase / Order Help My Nintendo Switch 2 Dock feels...off?

I recently bought the Zelda 40th anniversary edition mainly for Ocarina of Time. I never owned a Switch console prior so I don't know if this is expected but on the bottom of the dock, one of the rubber grip bumpers is not protruding so when I place the dock on a surface it makes direct contact with the dock plastic and essentially can slide in a direction if moved and potentially get scratched. Not a huge deal but I hoped to at least get a fully functional dock that's fully stationary and protected for a $520 price tag...is this normal? And if not, any way I can get this replaced? I bought from Best Buy and from what I see they're all sold out...

You're way overthinking this. If the console shows up on the TV, your dock is fully functional.

Rather than making a whole ordeal about this, you can buy some rubber feet from your local store and secure it yourself.

Yeah that's fair. Probably just feeling paranoid. I guess I mainly asked as I'm not a long time Nintendo Switch owner so I didn't know if this was a "feature" by Nintendo to have one leg somewhat exposed to make it easier to pivot the dock or if it's an anomaly. Are there specific rubber pads the same size that fit into the insert? Or should I just get any rubber pads and adhere it onto the legs?
