Driver door armrest dint

The driver side armrest on my 2019 E53 Cabriolet has a deformation where my arm rests on it. Is this normal? The leather shows no marks.

I have a 2019 E53 convertible, with 39,000 miles, and no such deformation.

maybe it has something to do with the heating element in the armrest, deforming it
