seam taping is typically present on fully waterproof garments. The Simple Guide's here are water resistant, but not fully waterproof, so there's no need for the seams to be reinforced. The pant leg could definitely be hemmed if you wanted to shorten the length.

Taping basically means that the seams have added protection against moisture. Or, in other words, more water resistant/proof.
