Tailgate Connection?

[FLEngineer]

Does everyone else have the same late opening in the tailgate where the wiring harness runs? Seems like it needs a grommet to prevent debris. Just noticed this and not sure that I've seen it referenced before.

I had a 2016 F150 and it had a hole just like that. I don't really think it hurts anything.

A grommet would make removing the tailgate a PITA, plus think of it as a big weep hole to not allow water to gather in the area

Seems to be like that on all fords.

Thanks for the input: just seems inelegant to me.
