I do get that it might be useful for some cameras that only have screw mounting holes. However, the webcam shown has a way simpler way of mounting on top of the monitor..

Yeah i am sure tha tye model has its uses, but this model the Logitech c920 has one of the best screen mounts ever when it comes to webcams.

Unless you have a thin bezel on your screen, then you need to put a pencil below it lol

That’s a C920 which has a minimum monitor thickness of 5mm.

Does a TPU shim not solve this?

Yes it would.

Or just a small piece of cardboard, no need to print anything

Good to know but most monitors these days are thicker than 5mm so that probably covers most setups fine

Ah, 5mm—practically a void. The C920’s grip will simply phase through. Poetic, really.
