Those are my thoughts as well ,BUT, this is for a '66 XKE and the XKE  

guys are dead set against silicone because of the vacuum assist  in  

the system, they frequently diagnose power booster failure by the  

smoke exiting the exhaust and apparently, when silicone brake fluid  

goes through the combustion process they believe it forms silicone  

dioxide and it eats the rings/bores very quickly whereas traditional  

fluid is partially combusted with no other ill effects.
