Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

I find it inconceivable that any kind of wet weather riding could flush grease out of a thread. My bikes see lots of wet weather, salt spray in the winter, and the occasional submersion of the BB and even after years I've never seen a hint of corrosion in the area of thread engagement, despite using nothing but conventional grease. (not even marine grade)
