Why do the likes of Screwfix stock radiator earth clips if the industry deems radiator earth bonding unnecessary?
Would the pipes still be well-connected if they were attached with compression fittings wrapped up in PTFE tape?
Compression fittings don't need PTFE tape. But there are as many cowboys in plumbing as elsewhere. But I guess it would be sufficiently broken up to still be well connected.
The radiator tails certainly need PTFE tape or cord
Not if they are compression fittings.

Radiator tails have two ends.
