If the cartridge doesn't have any obvious damage to the cantilever it will be difficult for the shop to tell if it's out of alignment unless they have another of the same to compare and if they don't check it by installing it in an arm and try setting it up properly.
For now I would try lowering the arm height (in a 9 inch arm a drop of 4mm = 1 degree change in SRA) to see if that reduces the brightness.
Do you have a loupe or other suitable magnifier so you can see that the stylus is clean and OK?
Yes, always brush with the arm loose from the arm rest clamp so that if you exert too much vertical pressure the arm will simply move upwards rather than bending or shifting the cantilever.
