16x28 doughboy pool walls bowing

Is it normal for the walls to bow out between the supports? Posting for a friend who is planning a liner replacement soon and hoping his pool is OK structurally

I have a 16x28 Doughboy that is bowed just like that.

All oval pools bow between the post on the straight sides.
