Default ? to Yank about my converter hub wear?

I have a Yank PT3800 with about 10k miles on it and last week my car was in the trans. shop fixing a broke input sprag. The shop owner brought to my attention that the hub on my converter was showing some wear...

Idk if its anything to be concerned about but I attatched a crappy cell pic he took for me to see what you thought? The shop owner said the 1" wide shiny ring center of the hub was slightly feelable by hand, is this normal wear you see on used unit's? Thanks ~Wes

From what I can see it looks normal for a 4L60-E but it could be roller burnished out or polished off.
call me to talk about the cause of this in the 4L60-E type of transmissions.
mean while check your dowl pins to see if they are mated up correctly, trans to block as many times they are pushed into the block too far
