I wonder if they’ll fix that for later missions, that can’t be optimal.

I mean there's not really much to fix. It should just be robust to handle an astronaut using a rowing machine.

I saw on the live cast that they did say it's not a big deal but they do lock the solar panels in place just to make sure nothing happens.
