Given its only ten hours usage, my money is on this:
Might have got crushed when installed/installed badly/overspray in the recess/badly machined recesses,
I’d say 25% of all my alu frames over the years have had some kind of frame pivot that is either over-sprayed, over anodised or under bored (usually a worn tool)
The tell will be to pull the bearing out. If it moves smoothly and freely in your hand, you know its being compressed by the bearing seat.
Usually a bit of time with some fine sandpaper and a careful eye does the job. You might have to be a bit more aggressive with steel though…
