Anyone have bad "orange peel" on their stock paint?

Are we STILL talking about this?! Christ... is this everyone's first car who complains of the rubberized rocker coating that is painted over and looks like "orange peel" but it there to protect the body form stone chips which result in rust. You know that every car has this? Even my 2005 Xterra, our 2006 Volvo, my 2004 GLI (but it was covered by side skirts).

It's definitely more noticeable on some cars than others, and yes there could be overspray that got somewhere else, but...
