Piece of cake.
IF the gas valve fails to close one day (and it's under warranty), you'll
gripe and moan about inferior products and replace the gas valve. When the
manufacturer of the GV takes it apart and finds bits of Teflon tape in the
valve, he'll deny the claim.
After the warranty period? The burner may never shut off OR the gas may
sputter and not get lit by the pilot until one day... BOOM.
Your life.
Most directions say not to use Teflon tape. Who needs directions anyway?

Omfg where do people come up with this stuff?

It is called common sense.

Really God help anyone you do work for.. they will believe the sky is
falling and they need to replace their muffler bearings or their car will
stop working....in the middle of the freeway during rush hour.
