Who? Me?
Not me. I've also been down that road. Sometimes we have to see for ourselves
before we give up.
I wish I still had that drive I had way back then to experiment and get "stuff"
done.
So much to do. So little time. Go have fun and don't worry about it. ;-)

Cut off the top part of the windshield that projects higher than the hoop.
Make up a piece of aluminum that can replace the top of the windshield that you
just cut off. Shape it to seal the area above the windshield to the gap seal.
Maybe put some velcro on it where it touches the gap seal, if necessary.
Get some blind nuts like these or similar and put about three of them on the inside of the hoop. https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/hapages/anchornutsmk1000.php?clickkey=3026140
Install the wings, install the gap seal, install the new windshield top piece that
you just made, and then put in some screws to hold the windshield and windshield
top piece securely to the hoop. You have added one small step to the assembly
process, but you made a lot of other things simpler.

Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing.
