I know Fluidmaster warns that using the typical bleach toilet cleaning
tablets harm the parts to their various toilet hardware, but is this
true? Does vinyl tubing and plastic break down in the presence of a
bleach-water solution? I ask because I installed Fluidmaster's own
bleach cartridge system, but I'm not goiing to pay $7 for each
replacement cart.

I think the problem has to do with the flush tower seal - it is silicon, not
rubber or plastic.

Try again - it's silicone, not silicon.

It's been years since I had a chemistry course,

Really? :-)
