STS Construction Board 1200 x 800 x 12mm

Found this. Just wondered if it can be used instead of tile backer boards.
I realise that I need a 1wmm board to make up a gap between wall and shower tray, but the STS tile backer board is only 10mm. I did consider dot and dab the tile backer to increase its thickness

What is correct toilet supply line
Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but don’t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.
