Is this par for the course? The right side is almost perfectly flush with the body. The left side is sunk down a bit.

I searched around and this seemed to be normal with older MBPs

Yeah, I'm being picky, but they managed to make the right side nearly perfect - why couldn't they do the same with the left?

Yeah, this is normal. My MacBook used to be completely flush, then, about a year ago, the left bottom side corner sank a bit. A visit to Apple showed nothing wrong with it. They even replaced the part at my request, but it was still not flushed after repairs. I did check and it was a new part.

This is normal. Go look at all the displays in the apple store, all of them are the same.
