Agreed. I removed mine also but I tend not to make that recommendation when flammables are involved. UL apparently believes they serve a purpose, but their manufacturing tolerances aren't tight enough. What I did at the same time was support the fuel line where it never dropped below the level of the top of the tank so siphoning shouldn't be an issue. I'm sure there are many boats where that isn't possible.
