Not ruling it out, car looks super straight though so I'm thinking it was just age and poor design. The seem seal in a lot of other places looks similar, just cracked and aged. If I didn't know what I was looking for I wouldn't have even noticed it. The issue is that the bottom plate overlaps the inner one so any break causes any water that runs down the back of the car to go straight into the trunk behind another sheet of metal that keeps you from getting a good look at it from the inside. I've read that the seam seal doing this is pretty common but it's usually in the rain gutters up top, I'm just extra lucky I guess.
