What exactly causes the rings to bend slightly near the seams? Is there a way to mitigate this, or is it inherent to the material? IIRC, Elon said future specimens will be a lot smoother, and all the renders from SpaceX show perfectly smooth surfaces. But we're at SN15 already (picrel), and while there's been a big improvement since Mk1, the welding is still pretty noticeable and it's triggering muh autism.
