Default Self-Bailing Deck Question

Guys, how are ya? Been thinking about rogue waves and crash pumps alot by reading so much on the new information highway. In 1999, I had a previous fiberglass professional rebuild my transom, prior to hanging the new motor. Also note, prior to finding this site and wealth of knowledge.

We agreed that the self bailing PVC looked like a Home Depot job, and that to prolong the life of the new transom, we should eliminate the scuppers, running all water from the deck, directly into the bilge.

Though I never remember having wet feet, I honestly did not realize the cockpit was self bailing, nor how important it was. How bad have I screwed up? Have I created my own Sinkcraft?
What should I do now? Thanks. Vezo, Part II.
