I think he means that Syn lubes too well for break-in by preventing any wear on the parts. Parts need to wear some to break in, like seating piston rings.
On the other hand, you don't break-in rear ends when the car is new so why now?
Just get it adjusted and it should be great. You should get a 12K/12mo. warranty on any new parts from a reputable shop. See the back of the work order.

You are right about synthetic oils and break in. The OEM's do not coat the gears as heavily with fosfate like the aftermarket maunfactures do.

Youre most likely fine. Unless its an angry growl, you shouldnt have any problems. A little gear whine is practically expected.
