Personal preference perhaps but I've never had a bb I've installed with teflon grease be a pain to remove.
I find antiseize, copper slip in particular to be exceedingly difficult to remove, it just spreads/moves around and is quite impervious to gt85/degreaser etc.
In automotive applications it's resistance to temperature etc might make it worth the hassle but for bikes it's just overkill in my opinion.
Your agricultural grease will probably be better than nothing but I'd shell out a few quid on a tube of teflon grease from Halfords or such. I use it for everything, seat posts, hub bearings, bb threads, cog/lockring threads etc etc.
