Default Are double glazing windows really sealed?

Are they air tight? I mean, even after several years they still don't

warm contractions and expansion) they ever manage not to leak somehow?
Am I missing some kind of magic here?

TIA!

Yeah you are? You've missed trying to take the
panes apart. Suggest you try. They will leak
eventually, but sliders should last 15 or more
years. The old non movable Thermopane windows
easily last more than 35 years.
