I tend to put my laptop in horizontally, and then rotate it to vertical. I tend to reach in and take my laptop out at an angle. At a point during both of these operations, my laptop and the slider caress.
It's a bummer, even if not a really big deal, and I wanted to bring this up as an area where some redesign might be considered. I recognize that I'm not taking perfect care when loading and unloading, but that shouldn't be necessary, I don't think.
I tried to take a photo of the burnishing, but it was difficult to get it to come out properly.
