retorque heads to solve issue?

Nowhere on the Cometic website does it say to re-tq their head gaskets. They tell you to tq to the manufacturers specs.
Brodix does, as well as many other aluminum head manufactures.
but then again the old man taught me to re-torque all the bolts holding a gasket on an engine after initial cool down.
I'm starting to see a pattern here as to why many suffer from blown head gaskets and leaky intakes.
