Looks lazy

This is a job for caulk.

It’s not perfect, but if it keeps the water out then it’s good enough. Making it perfect might cost A LOT more. Caulking it wrong could cause water buildup and leakage, but a pro doing it could help.

That’s some poor/lazy work IMO, that weird cut in pic 2/3/4 is going to funnel water in behind the siding, and the fact that they didn’t trim back the tin flashing and then just cut a slot in the siding corner caps…WTF!

You are going to need some caulk.

No. It does not.

No, but that's a tricky area. If it doesn't leak, move on. You can always fix it in the future

Now that you have done this, I would expect you to be observing similar houses and how they were sided, maybe take a photo

7 is okay, 8 can be sealed, 1 to 6, I'd make them redo.

Nope... 7 is fucked too. I missed it at first.
