Make sure you only make a tiny hole in the tape for the valve to fit through

There seems to be some conflicting advice about the hole size. Logic says, as you do, that the hole only needs to be big enough, whereas a Stans video suggests you file the edges down (for a better seating, I guess).

I've found the best approach to making the valve hole in the tape is to heat up a crosshead screwdriver over the flame of the gas range and then use this as a hot poker to melt a hole in the tape through the valve hole.
