Nowhere did I ever say 0W-16 was in use for "decades". In fact if you read my first post, you would see I believed it was quite new, to the point it's the first I've heard of it.

But as is always the case with you, you are so busy, "thinking" and or playing "engineer", you have trouble with reading the written word as printed. Most likely because you're more concerned over the viscosity of the chocolate chips when they melt. Or else are too busy posting one of your "engineering graphs" that look like they came straight from a Kindergarten finger painting session. And prove just about as much. But regardless, carry on cupcake.
