Default Sealer for head gasket ?

Hi.
The service manual tells not to use any sealer; to install the head gasket dry.
Is it because it is not necessary or because using a compound there will cause problem ?

A thin amount of high temperature silicone only around the coolant passages, would that be harmful ?
