I overheard a mechanic at the Portland shop say 'grease is not a thread locker' when a new guy was assembling a crank.
It hit me that I've been using a dab of grease on pedal threads for years thinking it helped, but now I'm worried about undertorqued parts backing out, so what's your go-to method for pedals and other critical threads?

That mechanic is right, so I just use a proper threadlocker on pedals now.

Always thought that was overkill but @jenny_carr52 has a point... guess I'm buying threadlocker now.
