How is water getting into the tread? If the nail goes in and there isn't a leak, then the seal (now including the nail) is water tight. If there IS

How is water getting into the tread? If the nail goes in and there isn't a leak, then the seal (now including the nail) is water tight. If there IS a leak but the tire has not gone flat, any water would be expelled from the defect. The only way I could see water infiltrating is if the tire is allowed to go flat.
