Is the omission of the dots from the taa marbutah in Quranic verses considered an error, given its transformation into a haa marbutah, which contravenes the Uthmanic script and the rules of orthography?

Writing words with an "h" (هاء) instead of a "tā’ marbūṭah" (ة) is an orthographic error and a deviation from the 's script. The absence of dots on the "tā’ marbūṭah" results in it being pronounced as a "hā’" when connected (in continuous recitation), which is a melodic error (laḥn) and a mistake that should not be intentionally committed when reciting the Qur’an.
