Dry tile grout is a concrete based product . Would you have any doubts about putting the toilet on a concrete slab ? My toilet has been bedded in grout for nearly twenty years , my oldest boy is over 240 ... We've never had a problem that was caused by the grout .
Damn near sprayed my dinner all over the monitor screen ... dinner at Pedro's indeed !

Grout will be more than enough to hold it. I used to install commercial laundry equipment and we would shim the four corners of the machine, and force grout under the base rails. The rails were maybe three feet long and 1-1/2" wide. Keep in mind the machines weight 1500 pounds, and ran 5-6 hours a day with constant vibration. Greg
I think you could use HDPE or UHMWPE. if there is not a plastic supplier nearby, you might look for a cheap plastic cutting board.
Of note, you might want to leave a slot somewhere so if your wax ring is leaking you can see the leak rather than having it ruin your sub floor.
For now, he has some Lowes purpose-made spacers in place.
That would be quite unlikely. The subfloor is a slab.
