I don’t mean because it’s soft. There’s zero need to take polish (abrading) to a finish unless you’re trying to remove defects in the paint. Being a new car, it should only have pretty minimal evidence of swirls or hazing. To take a machine and an abrasive to it doesn’t make much sense, compounded when you factor in all the variables of someone not familiar with the work. If that pad has any contamination on it, or compound is worked incongruent with the recommendations, you will be worse off. Not to mention, in the shade everything looks good. Get it in the sun, and look critically, and an inferior polish job shows up. There’s a whole world of products designed to fill and hide the results of that, none of which are permanent. So I say, your best bet is to just avoid putting them there in the first place
