Are these defects on ceiling normal after sanding before painting?

Can you please tell me if such defects are normal after sanding before painting? Tomorrow the man is supposed to start painting, and I am very confused about how the prepared surface looks. There are noticeable deep grooves (scratches), in some places the mesh is slightly exposed. Our handyman assures us that this is a completely normal result and that the paint will hide the imperfections. Is this true or do I insist on fixing the defects?

Upd. Surprisingly, the result is really not any flaws – I panicked in vain) I think the most significant defects our master did fix, but the little things, which were a lot, hid the coloring. Now there are no flaws to be seen.
