Hi,
Why do people use special sealed connectors for connecting wire for 12v, 2A?....if its just connecting wire end to wire end...why does it need to be waterproof?....surely a bit of silicone
over the metal after soldering is all thats needed..then a bit of heatshrink over the join?

if it is a connector; is meant to be disconnected at some point, for maintenance, replacement, measurement, troubleshooting. Using sealant eliminates that feature or complicates restoring the feature at re-connecting.
Connector is one thing; what you meant covering in silicone may yes, be a plain cheap wire splice.
