Thanks for the advice guys.
I am still unclear as to if it is normal for a little fabric/thread ball resembling pilling to appear where the hole was, after a hole goes away from rubbing, or if there should be no such ball there when this happens?
And with the ball there, what is the solution? Pumice stone/fabric shaver? Or is there a better way in this type of case?
That might be a damaged thread. I wouldn't try to shave it off from the top. If anything, if it bothers you to the point of needing to address it, I'd try to poke it through the fabric to the underneath side so that it's not visible on the surface. There it will be free to be a defect, but to do so out of the line of sight of decent folks trying to go about their day without staring at thread balls.
