Vents on Top of Refrigerator partially covered

I have a N1095 refrigerator. I went up to the top outside door to clean out a small wasp nest. What I noticed is disturbing. The luan plywood continues up approximately 3/4 of the way up the fins. Is this normal? Is there any reason that I should not trim the plywood to allow the fins to have the maximum air flow?

While you are at it, any advise on keeping wasps out of there?

Advise appreciated.

I had the same situation on my LS with the Norcold from the factory. Per the installation manual from Norcold, it was NOT installed correctly. The manual states:
“Make sure the top edge of the baffle is 1/4″ below the bottom of the condenser and that there is 1/4” or less clearance between the rear of the condenser and the baffle.

Diagram 213 clearly shows the proper installation of the above statement. In my LS it was clearly installed wrong despite any admittance of wrong doing from LS and/or Norcold. It never cooled correctly.

The ceiling is also supposed to curve from the fridge to the outside vent.
