Plumbing – Bath tub spout still drips a little after replacing, is this normal

bathroombathroom-fixturesbathtubplumbingplumbing-fixture

I didn't notice the leaking from the spout until some guests told me. It was dripping big drops. The spout is the type installing using hexa bolt. I bought the replacement at HomeDepot and followed the instruction here

Now I notice there are still tiny drops of dripping (exact spot in the pic). Not a lot of water I think. The faucet is still fine, no dripping there.

Is this normal for this type of spout? Should I be concerned about bigger leak elsewhere?

Thanks,

So I bought the replacing cartridge in my comment, and followed the instruction here. Super easy and no need trick or anything. The whole old cartridge came out easily, unlike other videos.
