Any benefit to cutting holes in hood underneath scoop?

I see so many folks with factory scoops and grommets installing the grommets with the tall side down. The tall side goes up into the scoop and a bit of sealer keeps them from leaking. They are designed to keep water sheeting up the hood out of the engine compartment. My 70 Dart has had a factory dual scoop hood with holes since 1980 and never had rain come in the engine compartment even in torrential rain.
Makes sense about the proper mounting of the grommets preventing water that's "sheeting" on the hood from entering. I thought that under the hood a semblance of low pressure would exist so that air would be sucked in while the engine is running. Hence the purpose of hood scoop(s) with holes in the hoods.
