What are your experiences of unscrewing a 22mm compression joint and

I've done it loads of times. It certainly wouldn't even occur to me to even
change the olive, let alone the entire fitting. I never use any jointing
compound or PTFE on compression joints.

Good. Anyway it worked. There is confusion. The PTFE was not on the
compression joint - there was a threaded joint as well.
