While I understand the ease of Loctite in comparison to safety wiring, to say they are the same just ain't so.
IF there was a magic fluid that was "the same" as safety wiring, I imagine we would cease to see racing machines, airplanes, etc using safety wiring.
Until that happens, I vote for safety wire.
But if the thought of a backed out bolt having its head snapped off only to see it become wedged in a spinning gear, causing your ZF case to crack, along with whatever else happens when such catastrophe strikes, doesn't put financial fear into your thought process, then go right ahead.
