People should always reject cars that do not meet their expectation. The tolerance levels are quite different from person to person. A car with a tiny scratch or alignment issue may be a big deal to you. But to someone else out there they would gladly take that car and be 100% happy with it. I'm not exaggerating. That's why I always suggest rather than take a car then make videos to complain about it afterwards, you should reject at delivery and take another car. If you do accept the car, it's on you to work with Tesla to get things fixed afterwards.
Overwhelming majority of the people out there do not care one bit about panel gaps, or how the headlights don't sit perfectly flush. I'll be honest before I learned about Tesla early this year, I never once looked at the panel gaps of a car. Most don't care about a tiny scratch or swirls that they can't see standing more than 2 feet away either. People wonder why Tesla don't fix some of these issues before delivery. Well it's because many people would gladly take them without question. It's business, why spend the time and money to fix something when there are more than enough people out there willing to take the product. That's why they'll work to fix issues for you afterwards for those that care to bring them up.
You should see some Model 3's and how beat up they look after a week of ownership. Many out there know before long the car would get dirty, dinged up by road debris, and scraped by shopping carts. So while some of us are OCD about keeping the car clean and free of scratches, many simply don't give a flying monkey's butt.
Anyways, you should always reject the car if you are not happy with it. Let someone else take that car. At the same time you should be happy with the car if you're fine with how it looks, to you. Don't get upset about something just because someone else pointed out something that never bothered you before.
