Default Question about stitch and glue

Before I answer, let me tell you: I have never done stitch and glue
myself.

Everything I have read about stitch and glue, though, says to remove
the stitches. They pull them out, don't sand them.

But!!! they remove the stitch _before_ the glass is put on:

I have been reading about it for some time now but I donīt understand one

And then glued and glassed everything.
Do you then take the stitches out? Because they will be visible under the
glass.
Or donīt they? And if you are going to sand it then you will sand off the
glass
from top of them.
