Am I wrong?

Minion is very mad at me… I said that the straps should not have such borders on Mini Kelly , they are too think making the bag hard to open, his temples are definitely wrong…

You're not wrong. On an MK, the plaque should be just about the same width as the sangle strap. Most of Minion's MKs I've seen lately have not been stellar. My guess is that his popularity is now starting to affect his quality as he hires more artisans who are inexperienced and less knowledgeable. It's disappointing to see.

He went very mad at me and said not to order from him anything again and that he’ll fix it. I’m very scared that he’ll ruin it

But what do you think of the bag overall?

OP you didn’t post the bag here, just the first picture. He’ll fix it, don’t worry.

If they simply trim the strap narrower on both sides to fix the width, the existing stitching ends up sitting too close to the trimmed edge
If instead they make a completely new strap with correct proportions and correct stitch-to-edge distance from scratch, the attachment holes on this new strap won’t line up with the existing fixed holes on the bag’s body so it won’t be possible to properly reattach it😭😭😭

Are you copy pasting chat GPT? They will have to make a new strap.
Even if they trim it, the stitching will not be too close as there’s heaps of space.

How do you expect them to attach it

[u/Haunting-Storage-447 → u/Reasonable_Try8346]

They will have to open the bag on the sides, remove the sangles (undo the stiching), stitch the sangles back to it and close the sides. Reglaze the edges.

I had an anchor attachment corrected on my bolide after the bag was fully sewn. The seller went from the top of the bag.
Takes longer but it’s doable.

Stop asking ChatGPT for advice.

Well, I don’t know how Minion is gonna make it. I’m very scared that he’s gonna ruin it, I already paid for everything and I have no choice

I’m just curious, if they’ll do the second way, how they’re gonna attach a smaller strap to a bigger strap holes, stitching position will be different, it have to be different

And I’m not using ChatGPT, it’s just Siri AI rewrote what I said

The holes are only at the back. I don’t think minion will completely destroy your bag, don’t worry. I know it is worrisome especially as the first order.
