In time I'll try out all configurations (eg mirrors only, reducer/corrector) to see whether there is a difference.

I'm not fussed as I've seen similar in my other 'scopes...plus I don't normally take images of 1st Magnitude stars.
Yep see them on my scope too on really bright stars. Those are a product of bright stars and getting reflections back from all the optical surfaces. I doubt there would be anything to worry about.
