After all the effort and problems that they had to go through, I really hope that they have something in there.

I hindsight, it may have been a good idea to leave the inside of the container with a rough machined finish so there is something for dust to cling to. Maybe even some double sided sticky tape on the bottom of the outside of the probe too.
