I've learned through my experience with motor repair workshops, welding is not always top of the list in expertise. As long as it doesn't break and there aren't any holes it should do.
I'm a welder, so would find it easy to criticise, but choose not to. My partner just had her car welded up for the MoT (it had to be done on a ramp for the inside sill panel) I won't look because I know I won't like what I see, it'll be strong enough, just very untidy
