Thumbs down RX330 Drivers Door Arm Rest

My armrest (Drivers Door) on my 2004 RX330 has an indent where my left elbow rests, and it never pops back to the original shape.
I took it in to Lexus (Valencia, CA) for the 1000 mile yesterday, and they told me that the door was not meant to be an armrest???? I am not talking about the part of the door up by the window, I am talking about the part of the door with the padding, down by where your leg is.
Does this sound right???
They told me that the door padding is not a memory membrane, and will not go back to the way it was.
Now there is a big dent in the door panel where my elbow goes(provides no cusion), and it never comes back to shape.
Anyone else have this problem???

I have this exact same problem with mine. I can usually pinch the indent the other way and get it to go away some but not all the way.

If it was not meant to be an armrest, why is it flat? Service techs are a strange breed.
