Why does step 3 on page 8 require sealing the soffit cavity? If the
exposed stud walls are sealed, why not just fill the dropped soffit
with cellulose or other installation, assuming all electrical and
other penetrations are sealed? There are no recessed lights in my
application.


I would assume to reduce drafts and to avoid having the loose fill
insulation from going through.
