Timesert seem to have one disadvantage if you are rethreading in situ, more swarf around. Rethreading with a tap traps most of the surplus material in the flutes (greased).

For perfection you could consider pouring (or pumping) oil into the filler and allowing it to run out the drain to wash out the swarf.
