Default Excess metal pieces in rear diff when changing gear oil

Does anyone else think this is excessive metal debris from a rear diff on a 2017 wrx? With 38,000 miles, conservatively driven from 11,000 miles till now. I don't know the history before that.
I used Subaru HPGO, 75/90 and it feels great now, but then again it felt fine before the fluid change too.

First couple pics I was waffling back and forth if it was bad or not, but the third pic?

That is no bueno, and IS excessive, no doubt.
