I don't think there was any pressure involved - just getting rid of
water because they knew the gaskets would only last 5 years or so.

Wonder if the purpose was to act as a " pressure blow off valve" for
when
the bulb heats up moisture and/air in the sealed lens ... ??
Otherwise, you could pull into the root beer drive in and " BLOOEY
