Default Windshield advice please...

I took my 2017 991.2 Targa GTS to Porsche Centre North Toronto for summer tires and spring cleaning (paint correction, wax, full detail, ding repair). I also asked for a small chip on the windshield to be fixed. When I picked up the car, they filled the chip, but then left 3 scratches, each about 2 cm. each, on the glass where the chip was. It looked like whoever repaired the chip scratched the glass when they were removing excess filler. I can feel the scratch with my nail, but still not too deep. What are my options, other than a full windshield replacement? Suggestions?

I would start by being polite and showing it to the dealer. Their first response would determine my second response.

I mentioned it politely when I picked up the car, I told them I would not pay for the repair and would like it fixed, waiting for response

Update: Dealer is going to replace the windshield for free. I have to give Porsche North Toronto credit for stepping up and doing this, even though it is not their fault but the fault of the person they hired to repair the chip.
