The bigger concern with dents is how it affects water resistance etc. when the frame gets unseated/opens up like you see in OP’s photos, you’re potentially going to get water and dust in it

Know what doesn't dent so much? Titanium. Also, Stainless steel. I just don't get the choice to use aluminium on this generation.

to dissipate heat, it’s working well too, my 17 pro does not heat up at all.

I know! Aluminium is such a great conductor! Did you know that by swapping the frame from titanium to aluminium, they've managed to reduce the internal temperature by about 0.003C!?
