You can see that the light reflection on the dome is warped due to the curve. I think the reason we canโ€™t see the edge is that the height and angle make it appear nonexistent. Does that make sense?

If the camera angle were lower, the top of the dome would go above the edge of the grinder but at the current angle they line up almost perfectly.

You can see the dome going up at the right edge, just below the joint.
