Default Pedestal Sinks

I notice that my new sink doesn't *quite* fit snugly onto the top of
my new pedestal (they were sold as part of the same suite), Apart from
fixing the sink to the wall, and the pedestal to the floor, is there
any need to use a filler of some sort (e.g. silicone sealant) between
the sink and pedstal ? - obviously not for waterproofness, but just no
make a good seat ?

The 3 pedestal basins I fitted all came with double ended bolt system for
mounting the basin securely to the wall independently of the ped. which was
apparently only decorative.
This seems much better than relying on the ped. for support.
Suppose you have to take off the trap, removing the ped. to get to it would
mean the basin would fall off the wall or hang on the pipes
