Actually, it's not good for the frunk lid to close it by placing one's fingers or palm on the crest, which is about two inches north of the latch. It might keep fingerprints off the paint, but it would be better to place the palm of your hand directly over the latch.

My mechanic has seen paint crack due to owners pushing down hard on the crest repeatedly instead pushing down on the painted surface directly over the latch.

Call me anal, but I'd rather wipe off a smudge than look at cracked paint.
