1 weight reduction
2 many people never use a moonroof - AC for hot days and on nice days windows down is better without sunroof because hot sun on ur face is for the pool or beach
3 savings = $1200 cheaper
4 long term moonroof is liability to break, leak or rust
5 Win/Win - Moonroof available for those who use it, like it

that's a ridiculous list.
I have owned the following cars and never had a moonroof leak
1993 Honda Accord EX - sold in 2012 with 225,000 miles.
1991 BMW M3 pujrchased 1993 - sold in 2006 with 147K
2005 Subaru Legacy - purchased new - sold in 2012 with 89,000 miles
2013 X1 M sport- purchased 2015 currently 70K miles
That's approximately 40 years of age on sunroof vehicles. I haven't spent a dollar on any of them with regards to roof related issues. I had ONE issue in all those years on my E30 M3... the cables got off track. I actually took it to be diagnosed.. it was going to be 1K to fix.. I declined. A few months later I tried it again and it fixed itself.. and I never had an issue again.
regarding your list.
1- no argument here
2- personal choice
3- no argument there - see #2 and decide if one will use it.
4- your absolute weakest argument of the list
5- makes sense.
you could have simply stated " Great news that there will be a no moon roof option. " and left the list out.
My X1 is outside my office RIGHT NOW with sunroof tilted up to keep cooler while sitting in the sun.
