[Harp-L] gaskets

[Vern]

Assuming reasonably flat comb & plates and snug screws, the leakage area under the plates is very small.
In contrast, the leakage area through the idle, opening reed... that opens even farther with pressure... is comparatively very large.

Why is a gasket not like weatherstripping the windows while the front door stands open?
