Yes, of course, this is perfectly true. But since OP asked our advice, I figured I would give him/her mine. And I'll repeat it, too: don't do anything to a new saddle until you've got to know it. Maybe it needs some kind of radical treatment; maybe it doesn't. Don't jump to any conclusions.
As for taking Sheldon seriously, don't judge a mechanic by his helmet!
