Am I being too pedantic or should I ask the builder to replace this?

They removed the damaged bit and shaved t slightly so it doesn't look as bad.

Simple answer is would you accept it if it was on a car ,for example.?

You are paying for a new product. You have spotted damage to that product. You have every right to request it be repaired properly. The end of the day its only a new sash
 
Here's how it looks after builder tried cleaning it up. Am I being too picky? Would most of you not be bothered?

Honestly... only you can really answer that.

If it was a window I had bought and fitted for my own house, and I damaged it, yes I'd live with it. However you will have paid good money for a new window , and it is damaged, either by the fitter or supplier/manufacturer, then no i wouldn't be overly happy. Options to me are , 1/ builder replaces sash , 2/ you accept it or 3 / you accept it for some money of the job. If it were me I'd be trying for a new sash but would accept money off if offered
