Prime or paint the cut edge as well. Water will wick up into the grain.

you can't blame those who installed the siding. blame the painters they do the caulking

If you don't caulk it it'll ruin the window if you do caulk it it'll ruin the siding. That vertical siding is junk anyway

I’m sure the siding manufacturer says to do it the way the creator here said to. It’s just that no contractor reads any instructions.

paint doesn't allow the siding to drink water when it's thirsty,
