I've read about this issue with seizing plugs and have always wondered why the plugs aren't given a brush of anti-seize when new. Seems an easy solution, all my plugs get anti-seize and never had an issue with any of them.
OEM Mfg would never accept that in an assembly process.
Adding it yourself, changes the torque applied to the threads and you can over torque the threads leading to plastic deformation. I add anti seize on my car's plugs and torque to minimum value.
