Pen F / lack of weather sealing / reality?

Every single review of the Pen F laments the lack of weather sealing (especially as compared to the OMD M5 II).  I own the M5II, and am considering the F as an alternative for some types of trips.

I owned 7 or 8 Canon digital bodies, the only one being weather sealed was my 1DmIV. I shot plenty of times in rain, light snow, with all the bodies, never experienced a single failure.

What does lack of weather sealing really mean for the F? I mean for someone that doesn't plan to shoot in a hurricane, nor dunk the camera in the ocean.

Real world shooting which might include some light rain or light snow, with the camera being exposed briefly, not sitting on a tripod for hours in the rain.

Thoughts?
