How so? One thing pipe threads have going for them is that they will seal without placing a side load on the threads. Very resistant to stripping. Also very resistant to loosening from vibration.

I wouldn't try to change it.
My FXRS-sp, which I owned 18 years, never had a problem with that plug, and it went through a LOT of fluid changes.
Best advice regarding the tapered plug is -- don't try to over-torque it. Hand-tight and "just a little more" is all that's needed. Never had it back out like that...
