Is this an issue that needs correcting?

I think the AAV should be higher than the disposal drain exit. Someone else has a differing opinion.

Oatey AAV height info:

Must be installed no less than 4” above the center line of the highest trap arm served and not within 2 pipe diameters of a trap weir.
