The main reason for not using silicone is to prevent cross contamination with oxygen service parts. .
Oh yea cross contamination. After breathing off my DSV, I am forever slipping the tongue to the HP side of my O2 First Stage and sucking the salt off the Orings. Ohhh gets my all tingly thinking about it.
Maybe I should put a prophylactic over my DSV just to make sure I don’t spread the Silicon around
