Any chance some lube down into the side tracks could be tried? Something like a bicycle teflon lube like Triflow.

That and is there a lot of pollen or other gunk that collects on the windows? In an older vehicle of mine it had a nasty tendency to allow grit/dirt to collect on the window channel, and scratch the glass when opened/closed. It would occasionally also cause the safety to trip. Remembering to clean the channel and a bit of Triflow largely eliminated the problem. But that's an entirely different vehicle, so I don't know if it'd apply here or not.

The Porsche service manager- who I like, my family has known for awhile and is genuinely knowledgeable and concerned with customer satisfaction- told me when I went in to dispute my warranty issue (see thread linked below) that, "As long as I'm here, I will make sure that window is not an issue for you". My concern then becomes, what happens if he's no longer there?

It was, coincidentally, a power window problem. But it was a crappy Buick from the 90's, so there's little to compare here.
Does anyone know how Kansas' lemon laws would view this matter?

Next time I have them look at it I will ask how the regulator/ cable/ bracket assembly and the tracks. Thank you for the suggestions! Will keep updated.
