Cam, this is not a fault, just not a very precise scale... and it should be ignored, except a for very rough alignment (for wide angle photography or visual, for example, when you are setting up for the first time).
All commercial mounts are more or less the same in this detail (if they have it at all)
For any other purpose, a polar scope should be used.. or drift alignment procedure (if SCP is not visible.
