Our basement was unused after our boys moved out. We had always used in-tank tablets similar to this product, but now the toilet downstairs would go months between flushes. Without the water changing and the product continuing to dissolve, the concentration of chemicals in the tank built to the point where it softened the plastic parts of the flush valve and it eventually broke. We think it leaked for a couple of days until, in the middle of the night, we heard water running downstairs. The result was an inch of water over the entire basement floor. Yes, insurance covered the $15K renovation, but a water claim stays on your insurance record for a very long time. Avoid in-tank cleaners in seldom used toilets.
I would imagine that all chemicals are bad for flappers. But honestly they're so cheap and easy to change, who cares? Personally, I don't use tank additives, but I can see the draw.

My 2 cents on in tank chemicals - I've used them for over 20 years. Do they (chlorine in particular) attack the rubber parts? Yes. Does it happen on a time scale that matters? No. First you'll probably notice the flush sealing surface leaking a bit - this will cause intermittent leaks where the fill valve will kick open to fill the tank. Just reach in and wipe the surfaces clean.
In all the time I've used these, I've replaced tank innards (flush kit, about $25 for a good set which allows you to rebuild the ENTIRE tank including tank/toilet seal and bolts) once, and that wasn't due to catastrophic failure just proactive maintenance.

I am interested in what failed specifically. All sealing surfaces are rubber gaskets - and I believe most fill sets will be polystyrene or polyethylene. In order for a failure to occur and an uncontrolled leak to happen, the main rubber gasket connecting the tank and lower would have had to fail, the main flush valve failed (and the toilet itself been backed up), or the fill valve assembly itself failed.

You'd care if your tank starts leaking dyed water all over your bathroom.
