How is common home repair supplies count as "domain-specific"? You don't have some teflon tape in a storage drawer somewhere in your house? Have you never replaced a faucet aerator or shower head?
As to the other tape, that's apparently for gas connections (I've never of it personally) when the original poster specifically specified plumbing tape.
- bradknowles 4y agoI don't have a roll of the stuff, no. I've seen them. I've seen plumbers use them. And I've changed a couple of shower heads, but I haven't used it. So, I'd file this under "one persons experience is not necessarily a guarantee of universal experience."
- SideburnsOfDoom 4y ago> You don't have some teflon tape in a storage drawer somewhere in your house? Probably, I'd have to look. But like I said "the last one that I saw was white" is one thing, "it's always white" is another very different thing. Is this a standard that it _has to be white_? If you can't answer that, then you have no case at all that it's not "domain specific knowledge".
