Completely, completely disagree. What you are saying is that somehow, 3 season tents are not waterproof. Totally untrue! 3 & 4 season tents can be made of the exact same material. The difference with a 4 season is they are generally sturdier (high winter winds) and have a snow load...usually accomplished by extra/thicker poles. Windows and venting are often different in 4 season tents. However, the material is often the same.

The material in my Nemo 3 season tent was the same as their 4 season tents. And I stayed in my tent for 48 hours straight downpour...and not a drop of water.
