Agree, otherwise known as band aid fixes that don't address true root cause. I use Evans for those other benefits - no corrosion and good for life. That being said, makes sense to go with the highest quality water pump and thickest premium hoses you can find, would hate to have to refill with the stuff because one of those went prematurely after 10 years
