The dumbest question I've ever been forced to ask
#33
I'd bet they don't bother to put a coat of fresh oil on the gasket at the factory. It's not overtightened so much as the gasket adheres to the metal under heat. The good news is that the torque required to remove a stuck oil filter is only that amount needed to rip apart the gasket.
