No. Only when it develops more than about 4-5mm of play at the dropouts.

Brompton list 2mm as the maximum acceptable play.

At the dropout? I’d say that’s normal in real life, but I’ll check up on that. It’s not a great design tbh, I’ve seen more than a few frames written off by excessive wear that has ovalised the pivot housing.
