I’ve noticed Apple have started using an image with the leather cases. Maybe to indicate they do mark due to the magnet? Or just to show you where they are?

I've just been wiping mine down when I take it off the charger and it goes away, either an alcohol wipe or a lightly dampened cloth
 
I have a feeling it’s only so long before third parties come out with better MagSafe style cases and cheaper but better chargers. A firm contact was always going to mark a case like this.
I think Apple has a couple of proprietary things under their sleeves for use with their cases. I tried several colored MagSafe cases and everything the display shows that it's connected to a MagSafe case AND displays the color of that case briefly on the display...
 
Yeah... no, mine is pretty permanent no matter how much I rub it. I bounce back and forth between the Apple Silicone case for my 12 mini, and the Otterbox Aneu. The plastic back of the Aneu doesnt leave any marks. The silicone case does. As far as I know, the warning from Apple only covers the Leather cases. I know I'm a couple months late to this forum, but I was making sure I wasn't the only one with the issue lol
I think its more permanent with the leather cases though hence Apple's announcement

I have a MagSafe holder/charger in my car and that has never left a mark. However, the same charger if left on overnight, does leave a mark. I was able to polish the silicone case enough to get rid of the mark but I won’t be using the MagSafe charger overnight again.
