MacBook Pro 13" Two Thunderbolt Ports M2 2022

Without having changed/touched/mod anything I noticed the other day a cardboard like paper poking out of the "hinge" that connects the monitor to the keyboard. Please see picture.
Someone from another forum gave a reasonable answer - but good to take another opinion if anyone knows that much Re this model.
The person quoted: "This part shouldn’t have been used! Someone was asleep in QC! The black plastic failed to mold over the antenna bar."

Here’s a reasonable answer: pluck it out (use tweezers if necessary) and go on with your day.
 
Well you are mostly right, but being a PC guy in the past, and the mac being under warranty now (also taking into considerations the scams Apple did with battery life deterioration software, cpu the same, and blocks in upgrading hardware in the intel based machines in a old fashion) if its something they have done wrong then they better fix it. Well then it comes to my fear, better not to open something if it does not need to.


+ it depends how long this is :p

Thanks
