Absolutely right. It takes nearly no time to reposition the cable and make the brake clearances correct with the qr in it's proper closed position. There is no excuse for that shortcut.
There is no real negative to having mis-matched rim widths but it also implies the LBS sold you what they had instead of what you needed. That would make me leary of ever doing business with them again, UNLESS you HAD to have the wheel back very quickly and were given the choice of using what they had in stock or waiting for the proper rim to be obtained. Was that the case?
