Contact the company, explain your bridge is lifting, and arrange for them to fix it. It's an easy warranty repair; letting it go can create exciting, complicated, and sometimes really unfortunate and unfixable consequences later. If it's gone for a week, you can use the time to make another best friend -- a human, perhaps.
Personal speculation? The practice of rebating the bottom edge of the bridge is done by Cort, Seagull (Godin), Taylor... even Goodall and Greenfield do it. So I suppose, It is more than speculation on my part - I know it for a FACT

This bridge is meant to be glued to the edge. It’s my fault for not confirming this information so it’s no fault of any of you guys. You are all just trying to help and I appreciate all of your comments. I’ll be contacting the manufacturer on the 2nd and arranging to send it in for service.
