On the bright side - you spent more time with a better mouse and have a quick-access spare one, just in case (unless you got rid of it).
So you like to cause troubles?
Kind of, sort of, you can call it a
deserved troubles.
Look at it this way - you basically have 2 options: Reward or Punish. Now there are many ways to reward(positive) or punish(negative) manufacturer of the product, but in this case we just focus on either you letting it go unpunished or causing "troubles", thus punishing it in one way or another.
It doesn't really matter who in the end gets punished (monetarily), be it the seller (might reconsider selling the products for that manufacturer if there are a lot of troubles with those = less sales for manufacturer), manufacturer (might make changes to the product, manufacturing processes, used materials, QC, etc., etc.), supplier (manufacturer might switch the supplier, if it doesn't improve the quality of parts in question), the end result is that enough of "troubles" forces the improvement of future products to reduce losses (that's in ideal world of course, in reality there are monopolies, regardless where those are in the whole chain, and when there are no alternatives, well...then there are no alternatives, but the statement still holds, to an extent of course).
Moreover, as it is now, if everyone would "let it go" - how would manufacturer even know that there are problems with the product?(of course there are reviews, and other ways of causing "troubles", and I've already mentioned that, but we're focusing on a single choice) It might not even be the fault of manufacturer of the product in question, but the supplier (manufacturer of component/material, that claims an excellent QC). Exactly - it will not know, not until buyers will start causing "troubles", so the moral of the story is - claim your warranties, to get your products fixed or money back and improve future products (either that, or see the real reduced warranty periods from monopolies

, still a win, sort of).
