There's a way to get around this problem: simply turn the lever slightly, as if advancing the paper, and then push the lever all the way down. That way it will rest against the side panel, right above the knob, and away from the carriage release button. ^^
(35+ years using a Lettera 32 and only recently discovered that trick)
But all you have to do is push the hinged section of the return lever to the right and tuck the lever down against the side of the typewriter. That's what I've been doing for 30 years with my Lett 32. I agree with you, though. It is a design flaw.
