Read the fine print on most manufacturers warranty. No pan, no warranty. We've all done things the same way we were taught by the old timers but building technologies have really come a long way in the last five years with wind load research and synthetic engineering, etc.
It still has to come out to be fixed, even if it is just a better bead of the right material and the installer should own it and while it's out, why not do it right?
