I just came across this product: https://www.stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/T ... B_20191102 It might not be useful given the curvature of the area. Might be worth a 'crack' though ;-)

Maybe more prevalent on thinner finishes? But nothing to worry about IMO (assuming all else is well). Possibly a negotiating point for a purchaser.
