Default Air Shock Vent Lowers front when I exit car - Normal?

Dear Forum,

I have read Don B's excellent 'Sticky' Re Air Shocks. He clearly describes how the car will level itself when heavy items are placed in and removed from the boot etc.
My car lowers its front end via the vent valve on the left hand front side every time I get out. Once the front is again level with the rear, the valve shuts.
This appears to me to be a very normal operation, given my 90 plus kilos being unloaded from the front seat!

Am I correct, please?
