Have any of you experienced any corrosion of this kind or is this just another case where theory and reality are out of touch.
Should I consider alu/graphite anti-seize, or is there nothing to worry about?
Thanks in advance.

Why? To see if others are right? To see what this is going to cost you? Why not just use Phil Wood grease and let others do the research on galvanic corrosion? Or marine trailer hub grease? I've ridden bikes on salt roads and owned boats sailed in salt water. I've always sought to avoid galvanic corrosion, not create it.
