Hans, when it'* sealed during manufacturing, it hasn't heat cycled, warped, or had foreign material in it.
If your car came from the factory without exhaust manifold gaskets, why do you put them back with them? Same reason.
It'* your car. Follow our advice or not. Your choice.

I'm not interested in "halfassing" the job one bit. I want it done right, however reviewing other resources I did not see that it was required or needed to seal the rotor plate to the rotor housing.

So, for the extra 3 minutes it takes (plus some extra care, as noted above), I don't see the point in not adding the sealant.
And, as a counter point, my blower had evidence of some sealer on this surface when I took it apart... a very thin layer. Very thin. A little carb cleaner and a rag (along with some muscle) was all it took to clean it off... but it was there.
Just my opinion.
