In California it is a misdemeneor to knowingly submit a fraudulent document.  If you know of a flaw like a missing notary seal, then why would you submit it since it might accidently record and create a flaw in the record.  You will have then knowingly and purposefully contributed to the flaw.  That affects you as a consumer, you as a business person, you as a taxpayer and you as a  shareholder in firms of interest in the public records, so why do it?  I try to avoid pre-screening papers for this very reason, so that I can submit them without prior knowledge of the flaws, but if I see one, I will not act illegally to contribute to defrauding the taxpayer.
