Subject:LPG Tank, Fill Valve

So I've seen a thread or two on the modern 'float' or 'Auto-Stop' valves
and it appears the new tanks sold by GW don't include them.  Regardless of
whether the law is ambiguous or not safety is my main concern.  It seems
the bleeder valve is redundant if one has an Auto-Stop/Float type fill
valve.   Ferrellgas here won't pressure test my refurbed tank unless it has
an AS/Float fill valve.

What is the consensus here as to whether the the newer AS/Float Fill valves
are really needed?
