I don't know why they don't use Xylan, Fluorokote or some other PTFE-based process on things like the bleed nipple and pinch bolt. Superior anti-corrosion and also low friction so easier to undo after years of corrosion of the substrate it's screwed into. I suppose they don't want the cars to last this long.
