Again you’re constraining your blower motor by doing so. It’s added wear and tear. It won’t break over night but you will require repairs faster then if you didn’t touch the vents.

Do want you want. It’s your property. But this is similar to someone constantly leaning on their breaks when they are driving.

They seem to have come from architects who lived in places without winter
