As an engineer I thought this was very informative. I almost always lubricate screws, nuts and bolts so I don't have to retighten them as hard, can remove fasteners later much easier, reduces thread damage, prevents corrosion, and reduces fastener head damage.
Oh I get the negativity, your the one's who gorilla tighten fasteners causing me to cuss...
