Why so much seam sealer?

is your car by chance an "R" code Canadian built car??

the code should be seventh digit in the vin number. example: LH23C2R

I ask this because I have run into at least three "R" code Canada cars that had an insane amount of seam sealer glopped on.

Yet I had a "B" code Hamtramck car that had hardly any ....it was skimped so bad that it almost looked like the seam sealer guy skipped the car on the assembly line.
