It's a convertible. Convertibles are notorious for for small leaks, high humidity in the cockpit, etc.

Porsche defaults the climate control to ON so the demister (along with AC for a source of 'dry' air) can prevent windscreen fogging and also to dry out the carpet, ductwork, etc. of any moisture to inhibit mold and mildew growth (again a common thing in convertibles).

Cheers!
