First PETG Print on Smooth PEI Coating Issue... 🙁

My first print of PETG on my MK3 with the Smooth PEI seems to have caused some of the coating to come off the sheet.

Can someone tell me if this is ok, expected, or did I do something wrong?

I've responded in detail to your reddit post on the same topic.

Could you link to that Reddit topic Bobstro? My personal answer is to order a replacement steel sheet and non-PEI coating from BuildTak, but there are other alternatives I'd like to know.
