Just get my trim cables and pulleys replaced and noticed several ribs behind the cargo compartment have no rivets. First rib has rivets completely from the bottom to top of the skin, second rib has zero rivets to skin, third has rivets, and fourth has none. It appears it came this way from the factory.

Is this done for a reason or did the factory make my plane on a Friday afternoon?
