As I see it, it is an uneducated fear handed down through the years, besides liability. Look at the property of gasoline. The vapors are heavy and are hugging the ground directly out of the filler pipe. They don't very often get any higher than the knees. The pilot light is at least 4.5 to 5 ft off the ground. Could be a rare occasion that something goes poof, that's what they would blame it on. Look at the water heater and furnace in your garage, gas and other flammables are present, they are required to be no more than 18 inches off the floor. To me paranoia. Just do as they say I guess. This is my opinion not gospel. Could make sense.
