:rolleyes: here we go....

and why would that be exactly? Have safely used copperslip even on wheel nuts for over 20 years.... not a single issue... a torqued fixing is a torqued fixing. Non lubbed fixing requires more then the original torque to remove over time because of corrosion, a lubbed (copper slip) fixing doesn't require any LESS than original torque i.e it hasn't caused it to loosen!
