Grease mmmm naaa - Rather use a bit of copaslip or any other type on anti seize compound - Grease is good for lubrication, not so good as an anti seize

I've never had an issue with greased cleat bolts, but I will also admit to using red nail varnish on bolts that I want to stay put, yet want to remove one day.
