Travertine coping problem

Hi everyone! So my travertine coping was put down yesterday - and right away I noticed the grout lines are different sizes in some spots (not the end of the world) but the one thing that is really bothering me is that the corners have these massively thick grout lines - because they put bullnose against a flat edge. So to make it look not bullnose, they’re filling it in with grout. Shouldn’t the corners be cut at an angle so that’s it’s flat meeting flat? Here’s pictures to show what I have right now

I don’t know if this is being too picky - and honestly little differences in grout isn’t the end of the world. But the corners don’t seem right.
