The rear window is bonded to the body, this keeps the water out and the glass in place. The trim is just 'a trim' and has no water sealing function other than to sit, where it touches, on the rear screen glass and the body shell. The 7 or 8 lower body clips that secure the trim often do permit water to leak past their fixing holes to the inside of the boot. Lots of guidance on here how to sort that particular issue.
