Traditionally , re use was assumed. Hence advice to fit with a trace of grease.
If I had purchased a new gasket every time I had the head of the Seven or later Jowett i would now be living in a State house (and thus have time to play with my cars).
Extreme nut tensions  stress the casting, distort valve seats, and excessively crush gaskets.
