Is this a crack or a vein in my granite

I had new granite fitted yesterday. Upon inspection I noticed this. I can feel it all the way along with my nail so I believe it is a crack

The supplier are telling me it is a sugar vein

I thought veins were within the granite and therefore shouldn't be felt on the surface, especially once it was polished and sealed

Help!

Looks like a crack to me. I think it's similar to my cosmic white and I can't think of any similar lines on mine like that. It's definitely 100% smooth.

If you can feel it with your nail on the surface then it’s a crack, the surface should be smooth.

Get the gutters back and stick to your guns about not being happy with what they have provided.

Thank you for your replies. I have emailed them back and will wait to see what they say

to clarify a vein shouldn't be felt as an imperfection on the surface should it?
