I think it comes down to how "move" is defined. I would lazily say mine doesn't move but I would be technically wrong. And you know that's important to me. It's not just semantics.
Maybe if we focus on visible movement or visible deflection we would weed out the "mine doesn't move" group. Even at elevated speed, I do not observe any visible deflection or flutter in my hood. I have seen that in other vehicles and I've adjusted plenty of latches and bump stops. I think that if an owner observes movement AND finds it annoying then, based on personal experience with my sample of one, I think it's reasonable to look for, and try to take up the lash.

On a related note anybody that has ever had somebody push the down button on a convertible while travelling at 80mpk knows the results are spectacular (and vey messy).

To tcoat's point, and I agree with him, it's a known and common "issue." Something about your hood looks funky though. It will definitely catch air if it doesn't close so it's leading edge matches up with the trailing edge of the bumper fascia. (is that what it's called? the bumper cover thing.)

The video clearly shows the edge of the hood above the fender bump or whatever its called. I don't expect you to see the hood vibration. thats why I said look at the EDGE
