I find it hard to believe that a good layer of silicone sealant will
last for less than 10 years. If you just stick the pipe pieces together,
sure, and I wouldn't assume that PVC pipe glue is watertight unless
there is assurance that all surfaces have been covered fully and are
resting wihtout gap against each other while the glue sets.

My really future proof solution fit for long term is to keep the pipes
accessible.
