Also it does not list two drains in the trunk floor from the spoiler mounts or drains around the taillight mentioned, which I’m curious now.
Have you considered drying down everything... and running a water hose around suspect areas to identify where is the leak?

Could one of the drain hoses have a leak... down where you can't see?

I can but before I do I want to know which drain holes may be suspect. Those under the clamshell are out, I guess boots from the spoiler bars into the trunk floor may be suspect but where are other drain holes that may be potentially lead to leakage into trunk?
