Tenon binding

Is tenon binding a common issue with Leblanc Bliss clarinets? A few days ago I noticed that one of the clarinetists in my school band section didn't have her bridge key lined up (apparently she didn't know to do that?), and when I went to show her how to line it up properly, I realized there was no way she could've lined it up anyways because the tenon was binding like crazy and wouldn't rotate freely. She says all of the tenons on the instrument are like that; I told her to bring it into the shop and have the tenons turned down asap to avoid getting stuck joints/cracks. She says she broke in the instrument, so I'm ruling out warpage due to an improper break-in. Has anyone else had this experience?
