The recommendations are fine but some will base their decision on experience and success. Doesn't make it wrong ......

Again, the PVC manufacturers universally recommend not using teflon tape for a reason. They don't make the tape, sticks or paste so its not because they get a cut of the profits.

Experience and success doesn't make it right, either.
I used to use teflon tape and never had a problem.
That doesn't mean I was correct or couldn't improve.
This is why we are here. :)
