Default New Gibson…neck overset. Concern or should I just shut up and play the dang thing.

Got a used 2023 50’s reissue LG2 off Reverb. The action is good at .090 E and .070 e. Saddle is very tall IMO. It’s right at 1/4” above bridge and break angle seems high. I read a lot of old threads today but thought I’d post one on my specific case. String height above top is about 7/16”. It plays very well I guess I’m just concerned with stress on the bridge. I’d feel better if it had the belly up bridge.
