Not sure it's BS. It keeps people from getting back in the car and rubbing their butt on the seat and coming back with a static charge, doesn't it?

Also shuts down the possibility of the self-fill latch going bad and pumping 5 gallons of gas on the tarmac, too.

Some/most self-fill latches still work around here, but I always stay right with it anyway.
