elinchrom grid scratching the inside of the reflector

I just bought a grid for a 21cm elinchrom reflector and I think it is great BUT....

The little metal part that is used to keep the reflector in place is scratching the inside of the reflector when I have to remove it. Is this normal or am I using it wrong? I can't really think of any other ways of using it. Tried to search online but can't really find any info on that (small) problem.

That's normal and does neither affect operation of the equipment nor is it visible in images.

If you have OCD, it's easy to learn to install and remove the grid without looking at the reflector.

Thanks. I know that it is not a big deal, I just think that it is a weird design choice to use metal that will scratch the other component... but hey, I'm getting to know more and more about "photo world" so I'm starting to understand that design choices is often a bit frustrating.
