Not I, said the little red hen.

Don't on valve covers or oil drain covers or chain housing covers or or intake/exhaust manifolds or engine /transmission carrier fastemers (other than the four big bolts) or what holds the engine to the transmission or lots of things. Never had a problem.

Case bolts, through and perimeter, rod bolts, head nuts, cam carrier nuts, flywheel bolts, pully bolt, CV bolts, and most transmission stuff - all that gets torqued. Except for the few where it is inconvenient, like the case bolts in the bell housing. Something like the white knuckle system seems to do fine there.
