Default Holes in 1930 Briggs Door, use ?

It seems that every nut, bolt or item on the Model A was put in place for a reasson by Ford Engineering. So to that end what are these holes for (see photos pls).

Just a guess, but I imagine some extra holes were used for holding parts in a jig for assembly.

My 1930 Briggs Town Sedan does not have those holes in the doors.

Interesting, maybe we'll fill them and no one will know. Thanks Tech.

Maybe they were used to attach rubber rattle stops.
