Don’t worry about it. Because there are no electronic records for tax-free purchases, Customs does not know that you were supposed to show them, and as far as I can tell there is zero enforcement of this.

The theoretical point of the system is to ensure that you’re taking the duty-free item out of the country, and because you did, you’re OK.
