Keyboard and Trackpad Marks on Screen Macbook Pro 2020 M1

There are keyboard and mouse imprints on my Macbook Pro M1 2020 in just six months of usage. I have been using Macbook Air for over a decade and have never faced such problems. I tried contacting Apple India Customer Care but they refused to fix it as it is not covered in the warranty. I tried cleaning with 70% Alcohol Solution in Apple Service centre but those marks were still there. It seems that the anti-reflective coating is peeling off.

I usually clean my Mac with a microfiber cloth every once in a while and ensure no pressure is put on the outer lid.

Is anyone else facing the same problem?

Any suggestions to reduce the marks?

Generally this is not a concern. Most of us have this but it seldom escalates into real damage.

It's not a warranty covered event, it's just the way the Mac is designed. Keep the KB and Trackpad free of grit following Apple's advice on cleaning. Do the same for the screen.
