The thing is every factory built car on earth has spot welds holding panels on that have a seam sealer over those seams, every single car, and they aren't failing. I think it comes down to prep and proper products. Sand blasting that area even would be ideal, then epoxy primer and a quality 2k sealer.
I am not fully disagreeing with you now mind you, not even close, this is the "bestest" way and you are describing the "best" way. I just think welding it up solid is asking for more problems with warpage and a LOT more work, a LOT,
LOT more work.
