Granted, the small and large rubber strips do not do much for sealing leaks, but those strips are highly essential in holding the glass in place! (Especially if only held in with the original adhesive) It's not just cosmetic, though any gaps in it are.

As far as living area windows, not cockpit or rear flat windows, my understanding is the press in rubber is purely cosmetic and has nothing to do with
sealing or leaks. So don’t buy the press in rubber to solve leaks.
Cinnabar offers to piece in 1-2” pieces to fix the “shrinkage” gap issues and does not glue it to the existing rubber. This is a cheaper quick
fix for the shrinkage gaps I opted for on some side windows on 77.
