Flow through ventilation.
Air comes in through the front vents, through the heater, or by passes it, then through the cabin & out through the vents when the windows are closed, like in winter. If the vents are removed, & no other air outlet is provided, the cabin becomes slightly pressurised, then nothing. Sort of like blowing up a paper bag. No air movement means no circulation of heat & fresh air. [so don't fart.]
Coupes have then down on the body just behind the doors & sedans have them in the 'C' pillar & they serve their purpose well.
Blocking off the vents in front of the windscreen messes with the ventilation in the same basic way. No air movement, no comfort.
God daam you dribble a lot of pointless bullcrap to make yourself look like a genius.
Its not highly technical. I wouldnt even call it technical. When you lock up your car, what happens to the cabin pressure as you close the door? It is vented. If you didnt have the vents, what would happen to your windscreens? Do you think they might pop out? Thats the sole reason. The same reason as to why cars to this day still have vents behind bumpers etc.
Weld them up - hide new ones elsewhere, or simply leave the windows cracked open a little like most people do anyways.
If they are made for air flow to circulate. Then they are designed pretty daam #### along with the interior trim that covers them. They are designed to vent air pressure not air circulation. #### I would think an encyclopedia would tell you that.
