Is this normal? Maybe something done for convenience sake? Somebody please

I've seen this as a feature on some other laptop, may have been a Sony,
but there was a touch strip on the casing above the keyboard.

If your laptop has no such obvious 'by design' feature maybe the wires
or the power button is out of position under the casing.
