Frame paint chipping

I got a bike 2 weeks ago from a dealer,brand new its a Giant Talon 3 GE,went to clean the chain and cassete and while removing the wheel i noticed a small piece fall of to the floor and upon further inspection i noticed some paint chiping on the part where the hanger is.Should i be concerned and file a waranty or is this cosmetic and easy to solve with some matched paint and clear coat?

Opinions on my and my girlfriends riding position

My girlfriend rides Capriolo city bike and feels ok just her hand position on bars is slightly awkward (photo in comments) and we wonder if her saddle height is good.

Im on a Giant Talon 3 GE and i feel neck pain while driving and always have need to stretch and look down for few moments and always feel like leaning forward too much,its L frame(im 83cm inseam and frame is 19")
Looking for a raise bar (50mm) hopefully that solves my leaning forward and neck pain.

Any suggestions and advices welcome,thanks im advance :)

Rear derailleur position

Got a brand new Giant Talon 3 GE and drove it maybe 100km.Shifting got a little messed up lately.
I tuned my rear derailleur and it shifts ok now but i noticed frok the beginning its not instant but takes a second to shift especialy when going from bigger cog to the smaller ones.
Does adjusting b screw do anything to speed up the shifting?
How does it look on this picture?
Any help or advice is welcome.
